报告题目:Title: Improved approximation algorithms for correlation clustering using pre-clustering and cluster LP


摘要:We consider the classic correlation clustering problem: Given a complete graph where edges are labelled either + or -, the goal is to find a partition of the vertices that minimizes the number of the +edges across parts plus the number of the -edges within parts.  Recently, Cohen-Addad, Lee and Newman presented a 1.994-approximation algorithm for the problem using the Sherali-Adams hierarchy, hence breaking through the integrality gap of 2 for the classic linear program and improving upon the 2.06-approximation of Chawla, Makarychev, Schramm and Yaroslavtsev. We present several techniques that improve the state-of-the-art approximation ratio. We propose the cluster LP as a strong linear program that might tightly capture the approximability of Correlation Clustering. It unifies all the previous relaxations for the problem. It is exponential-sized, but we show that it can be (1 + ε)-approximately solved in polynomial time for any ε > 0, using a preclustering technique we introduced. It allows us to essentially ignore the error arising from the correlated rounding used by Cohen-Addad et al. We demonstrate the power of the cluster LP by presenting a simple rounding algorithm, and providing two analyses, one analytically proving a 1.49-approximation and the other solving a factor-revealing SDP to show a 1.437-approximation. This is based on joint work with Cohen-Addad, Lee and Newman, in FOCS 2023, and an ongoing work with Cao, Cohen-Addad, Lee, Newman and Vogl.

2.报告专家:刘景铖

报告题目:Optimal Bounds on Private Graph Approximation


摘要:We propose an efficient epsilon-differentially private algorithm, that given a simple weighted n-vertex, m-edge graph G with a maximum unweighted degree Delta, outputs a synthetic graph which approximates the spectrum within O(min{Delta(G), sqrt{n}) on the purely additive error. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first epsilon-differentially private algorithm with a non-trivial additive error for approximating the spectrum of the graph. One of the subroutines of our algorithm also precisely simulates the exponential mechanism over a non-convex set, which could be of independent interest given the recent interest in sampling from a log-concave distribution defined over a convex set. Spectral approximation also allows us to approximate all possible (S, T)-cuts, but it incurs an error that depends on the maximum degree Delta(G). We further show that using our sampler, we can also output a synthetic graph that approximates the sizes of all (S, T)-cuts on n vertices weighted graph G with m edges while preserving (epsilon, delta)-differential privacy and optimal additive error for weighted graphs. This removes the gap in the upper and lower bound in Eliáš, Kapralov, Kulkarni, and Lee (SODA 2020). Based on joint work with Jalaj Upadhyay and Zongrui Zou.

报告题目:On enumerating algorithms of novel multiple leaf-distance granular regular alpha-subtrees of trees


摘要:Subtrees and BC-subtrees (subtrees in which the distance between any two leaves is even) are important concepts in the study of complex graphical structures. In this article, we propose a novel generalization called the leaf-distance granular regular alpha-tree (abbreviated as LDR alpha-tree for short). This is a tree in which the distance between any two leaves is divisible by alpha (alpha is a positive integer). An LDR alpha-subtree is simply a subtree that is also a LDR alpha-tree. We present basic properties and generating functions related to the LDR alpha-subtrees enumeration. Based on those theoretical results we provide efficient algorithms for enumerating various LDR alpha-subtrees of trees. Our algorithms can serve as multi-distance granularity sifters of a graph to screen all the α-subtree uniformly, and thus provide novel insights into exploring new structural properties from the perspective of multiple leaf-distance granularity.

报告题目:Streaming Algorithms for Maximizing Submodular Functions


摘要:Submodular functions play a key role in combinatorial optimization field. The general problem of optimizing a submodular function subject to different constraints captures lots of problems both in theory and in practice, including maximum coverage, maximum cut, facility location, social welfare maximization, influence maximization in social networks, sensor placement, etc. On the other hand, in the current big data environment, the input data of many applications is much larger than the storage capacity of individual computer. In this case we need to process data by using the streaming model. In this talk, I will show several streaming algorithms for the problem of maximizing submodular functions with different constraints.
