Phase Transition for Stochastic Block Model with more than Communities (II)
Alexandra Carpentier, Christophe Giraud, Nicolas Verzelen
A fundamental theoretical question in network analysis is to determine under which conditions community recovery is possible in polynomial time in the Stochastic Block Model (SBM).…
Low-degree lower bounds via almost orthonormal bases
Alexandra Carpentier, Simone Maria Giancola, Christophe Giraud +1
Low-degree polynomials have emerged as a powerful paradigm for providing evidence of statistical-computational gaps across a variety of high-dimensional statistical models [Wein25]…
Computational barriers for permutation-based problems, and cumulants of weakly dependent random variables
Bertrand Even, Christophe Giraud, Nicolas Verzelen
In many high-dimensional problems,polynomial-time algorithms fall short of achieving the statistical limits attainable without computational constraints. A powerful approach to pro…
Computational lower bounds in latent models: clustering, sparse-clustering, biclustering
Bertrand Even, Christophe Giraud, Nicolas Verzelen
In many high-dimensional problems, like sparse-PCA, planted clique, or clustering, the best known algorithms with polynomial time complexity fail to reach the statistical performan…
