This paper looks at the task of network topology inference, where the goal is to learn an unknown graph from nodal observations. One of the novelties of the approach put forth is the consideration of prior information about the density of motifs of the unknown graph to enhance the inference of classical Gaussian graphical models. Directly dealing with the density of motifs constitutes a challengin...Show More
We consider the task of representing signals supported on graph bundles, which are generalizations of product graphs that allow for "twists" in the product structure. Leveraging the localized product structure of a graph bundle, we demonstrate how a suitable partition of unity over the base graph can be used to lift the signal on the graph into a space where a product factorization can be readily ...Show More
We establish a framework for signal processing on product spaces of simplicial and cellular complexes. For simplicity, we focus on the product of two complexes representing time and space, although our results generalize naturally to products of simplicial complexes of arbitrary dimension. Our framework leverages the structure of the eigenmodes of the Hodge Laplacian of the product space to jointl...Show More
Graph filtering is the cornerstone operation in graph signal processing (GSP). Thus, understanding it is key in developing potent GSP methods. Graph filters are local and distributed linear operations, whose output depends only on the local neighborhood of each node. Moreover, a graph filter's output can be computed separately at each node by carrying out repeated exchanges with immediate neighbor...Show More
We develop wavelet representations for edge-flows on simplicial complexes, using ideas rooted in combinatorial Hodge theory and spectral graph wavelets. We first show that the Hodge Laplacian can be used in lieu of the graph Laplacian to construct a family of wavelets for higher-order signals on simplicial complexes. Then, we refine this idea to construct wavelets that respect the Hodge-Helmholtz ...Show More
The processing of signals supported on non-Euclidean domains has attracted large interest recently. Thus far, such non-Euclidean domains have been abstracted primarily as graphs with signals supported on the nodes, though the processing of signals on more general structures such as simplicial complexes has also been considered. In this paper, we give an introduction to signal processing on (abstra...Show More
Clustering is a ubiquitous problem in data science and signal processing. In many applications where we observe noisy signals, it is common practice to first denoise the data, perhaps using wavelet denoising, and then to apply a clustering algorithm. In this paper, we develop a sparse convex wavelet clustering approach that simultaneously denoises and discovers groups. Our approach utilizes convex...Show More
Graph signal processing (GSP) provides a powerful framework for analyzing signals arising in a variety of domains. In many applications of GSP, multiple network structures are available, each of which captures different aspects of the same underlying phenomenon. To integrate these different data sources, graph alignment techniques attempt to find the best correspondence between vertices of two gra...Show More
We consider the problem of estimating a network's eigenvector centrality only from data on the nodes, with no information about network topology. Leveraging the versatility of graph filters to model network processes, data supported on the nodes is modeled as a graph signal obtained via the output of a graph filter applied to white noise. We seek to simplify the downstream task of centrality ranki...Show More
We consider the problem of sequential graph topology change-point detection from graph signals. We assume that signals on the nodes of the graph are regularized by the underlying graph structure via a graph filtering model, which we then leverage to distill the graph topology change-point detection problem to a subspace detection problem. We demonstrate how prior information on the spectral signat...Show More
We consider the problem of inferring the unobserved edges of a graph from data supported on its nodes. In line with existing approaches, we propose a convex program for recovering a graph Laplacian that is approximately diagonalizable by a set of eigenvectors obtained from the second-order moment of the observed data. Unlike existing work, we incorporate prior knowledge about the distribution from...Show More
This paper characterizes the difficulty of estimating a network's eigenvector centrality only from data on the nodes, i.e., with no information about the topology of the network. We model this nodal data as graph signals generated by passing white noise through generic (not necessarily low-pass) graph filters. Leveraging the spectral properties of graph filters, we estimate the eigenvectors of the...Show More
Networks and data supported on graphs have become ubiquitous in the sciences and engineering. This paper studies the `blind' community detection problem, where we seek to infer the community structure of a graph model given the observation of independent graph signals on a set of nodes whose connections are unknown. We model each observation as filtered white noise, where the underlying network st...Show More
In this paper, we consider the problem of projecting networks onto metric spaces. Networks are structures that encode relationships between pairs of elements or nodes. However, these relationships can be independent of each other, and need not be defined for every pair of nodes. This is in contrast to a metric space, which requires that a distance between every pair of elements in the space be def...Show More
We study the blind centrality ranking problem, where our goal is to infer the eigenvector centrality ranking of nodes solely from nodal observations, i.e., without information about the topology of the network. We formalize these nodal observations as graph signals and model them as the outputs of a network process on the underlying (unobserved) network. A simple spectral algorithm is proposed to ...Show More
Networks and network processes have emerged as powerful tools for modeling social interactions, disease propagation, and a variety of additional dynamics driven by relational structures. Recently, neural networks have been generalized to process data on graphs, thus being able to learn from the aforementioned network processes achieving cutting-edge performance in traditional tasks such as node cl...Show More
