Beyond the Laplacian: Interpolated Spectral Augmentation for Graph Neural Networks

Ziyao Cui, Edric Tam

Graph neural networks (GNNs) are fundamental tools in graph machine learning. The performance of GNNs relies crucially on the availability of informative node features, which can b…

On the Statistical Capacity of Deep Generative Models

Edric Tam, David B. Dunson

Deep generative models are routinely used in generating samples from complex, high-dimensional distributions. Despite their apparent successes, their statistical properties are not…

Assessing the Distributional Fidelity of Synthetic Chest X-rays using the Embedded Characteristic Score

Edric Tam, Barbara E Engelhardt

Chest X-ray (CXR) images are among the most commonly used diagnostic imaging modalities in clinical practice. Stringent privacy constraints often limit the public dissemination of…

Exact Sampling of Spanning Trees via Fast-forwarded Random Walks

Edric Tam, David B. Dunson, Leo L. Duan

Tree graphs are routinely used in statistics. When estimating a Bayesian model with a tree component, sampling the posterior remains a core difficulty. Existing Markov chain Monte…

Spectral Gap Regularization of Neural Networks

Edric Tam, David Dunson

We introduce Fiedler regularization, a novel approach for regularizing neural networks that utilizes spectral/graphical information. Existing regularization methods often focus on…

Multiscale Graph Comparison via the Embedded Laplacian Discrepancy

Edric Tam, David Dunson

Laplacian eigenvectors capture natural community structures on graphs and are widely used in spectral clustering and manifold learning. The use of Laplacian eigenvectors as embeddi…

Fiedler Regularization: Learning Neural Networks with Graph Sparsity

Edric Tam, David Dunson

We introduce a novel regularization approach for deep learning that incorporates and respects the underlying graphical structure of the neural network. Existing regularization meth…
