A Gromov--Wasserstein Geometric View of Spectrum-Preserving Graph Coarsening

Yifan Chen, Rentian Yao, Yun Yang +1

Graph coarsening is a technique for solving large-scale graph problems by working on a smaller version of the original graph, and possibly interpolating the results back to the ori…

Likelihood Adjusted Semidefinite Programs for Clustering Heterogeneous Data

Yubo Zhuang, Xiaohui Chen, Yun Yang

Clustering is a widely deployed unsupervised learning tool. Model-based clustering is a flexible framework to tackle data heterogeneity when the clusters have different shapes. Lik…
