Spectral clustering of network time series via the sample covariance matrix

Brendan Martin, Joshua Agterberg, Mihai Cucuringu +2

Spectral clustering for community detection is analysed in multivariate time series models whose dependence structure is determined by an unobserved stochastic blockmodel. We estab…

Two-Sample Hypothesis Testing for Subspace Equality in Network Data

Rajdeep Brahma, Joshua Agterberg, Yuguo Chen

In many settings one is often interested in determining whether two networks share some joint structural connectivity patterns such as communities. However, while communities may b…

Statistically and Computationally Optimal Estimation and Inference of Common Subspaces

Joshua Agterberg

Given multiple data matrices, many problems in statistics and data science rely on estimating a common subspace that captures certain structure shared by all the data matrices. In…

Concentration bounds on response-based vector embeddings of black-box generative models

Aranyak Acharyya, Joshua Agterberg, Youngser Park +1

Generative models, such as large language models or text-to-image diffusion models, can generate relevant responses to user-given queries. Response-based vector embeddings of gener…

Statistical Inference for Low-Rank Tensors: Heteroskedasticity, Subgaussianity, and Applications

Joshua Agterberg, Anru Zhang

In this paper, we consider inference and uncertainty quantification for low Tucker rank tensors with additive noise in the high-dimensional regime. Focusing on the output of the hi…

Estimating Higher-Order Mixed Memberships via the Tensor Perturbation Bound

Joshua Agterberg, Anru Zhang

Higher-order multiway data is ubiquitous in machine learning and statistics and often exhibits community-like structures, where each component (node) along each different mode has…

Joint Spectral Clustering in Multilayer Degree-Corrected Stochastic Blockmodels

Joshua Agterberg, Zachary Lubberts, Jesús Arroyo

Modern network datasets are often composed of multiple layers, either as different views, time-varying observations, or independent sample units, resulting in collections of networ…

Entrywise Recovery Guarantees for Sparse PCA via Sparsistent Algorithms

Joshua Agterberg, Jeremias Sulam

Sparse Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a prevalent tool across a plethora of subfields of applied statistics. While several results have characterized the recovery error of t…

Entrywise Estimation of Singular Vectors of Low-Rank Matrices with Heteroskedasticity and Dependence

Joshua Agterberg, Zachary Lubberts, Carey Priebe

We propose an estimator for the singular vectors of high-dimensional low-rank matrices corrupted by additive subgaussian noise, where the noise matrix is allowed to have dependence…

Nonparametric two-sample hypothesis testing for low-rank random graphs of differing sizes

Joshua Agterberg, Minh Tang, Carey Priebe

Given two networks of differing sizes, it is of interest to test whether the two networks belong to the same distribution. We formalize the notion of "equality of distribution" und…

Correcting a Nonparametric Two-sample Graph Hypothesis Test for Graphs with Different Numbers of Vertices with Applications to Connectomics

Anton A. Alyakin, Joshua Agterberg, Hayden S. Helm +1

Random graphs are statistical models that have many applications, ranging from neuroscience to social network analysis. Of particular interest in some applications is the problem o…

On Two Distinct Sources of Nonidentifiability in Latent Position Random Graph Models

Joshua Agterberg, Minh Tang, Carey E. Priebe

Two separate and distinct sources of nonidentifiability arise naturally in the context of latent position random graph models, though neither are unique to this setting. In this pa…

Spectral graph clustering via the Expectation-Solution algorithm

Zachary M. Pisano, Joshua S. Agterberg, Carey E. Priebe +1

The stochastic blockmodel (SBM) models the connectivity within and between disjoint subsets of nodes in networks. Prior work demonstrated that the rows of an SBM's adjacency spectr…

Valid Two-Sample Graph Testing via Optimal Transport Procrustes and Multiscale Graph Correlation with Applications in Connectomics

Jaewon Chung, Bijan Varjavand, Jesus Arroyo +5

Testing whether two graphs come from the same distribution is of interest in many real world scenarios, including brain network analysis. Under the random dot product graph model,…

Vertex Nomination, Consistent Estimation, and Adversarial Modification

Joshua Agterberg, Youngser Park, Jonathan Larson +3

Given a pair of graphs and and a vertex set of interest in , the vertex nomination (VN) problem seeks to find the corresponding vertices of interest in (if t…
