报告摘要:As a key development in the emerging field of graph signal processing, the notion of graph filters has been used to define generative models for graph data which explains many examples of network dynamics. With this interpretation, classical signal processing tools such as frequency analysis have been applied with analogous interpretation to graph data, generating new insights for data science. In this talk, we present a “user guide” on a specific yet common class of graph data, where the generating graph filters are low pass such that the filter attenuates contents in the higher graph frequencies while retaining contents in the lower graph frequencies. Our choice is motivated by the prevalence of low pass models in application domains such as social networks, financial markets, and power systems. We demonstrate how to leverage properties of low pass graph filters by focusing on its applications to graph learning. We will discuss recent results such as graph topology learning, high level graph topology features inference (such as community, centrality), etc.
