We consider the problem of learning a general graph G=(V,E)G=(V,E) using edge-detecting queries, where the number of vertices V=n|V|=n is given to the learner. The information theoretic lower bound gives mlognm\log n for the number of queries, where m=Em=|E| is the number of edges. In case the number of edges mm is also given t…

Active search (AS) on graphs focuses on collecting certain labeled nodes (targets) given global knowledge of the network topology and its edge weights under a query budget. However, in most networks, nodes, topology and edge weights are all initially unknown. We introduce selective harvesting, a variant of AS where the…

Learning low-dimensional embeddings of knowledge graphs is a powerful approach used to predict unobserved or missing edges between entities. However, an open challenge in this area is developing techniques that can go beyond simple edge prediction and handle more complex logical queries, which might involve multiple un…

Path queries on a knowledge graph can be used to answer compositional questions such as "What languages are spoken by people living in Lisbon?". However, knowledge graphs often have missing facts (edges) which disrupts path queries. Recent models for knowledge base completion impute missing facts by embedding knowledge…

New algorithm for clustering with faulty oracle achieves optimal queries and efficiency.

problem Clustering with a faulty oracle, especially for multiple clusters.
method Built on stochastic block model, provides nearly-optimal query complexity.
result Time-efficient algorithm with nearly-optimal query complexity for all constant k and any δ.

In this paper, we initiate a rigorous theoretical study of clustering with noisy queries (or a faulty oracle). Given a set of nn elements, our goal is to recover the true clustering by asking minimum number of pairwise queries to an oracle. Oracle can answer queries of the form : "do elements uu and vv belong to the…

Data de-duplication is the task of detecting multiple records that correspond to the same real-world entity in a database. In this work, we view de-duplication as a clustering problem where the goal is to put records corresponding to the same physical entity in the same cluster and putting records corresponding to diff…
