Partition of unity methods (PUMs) on graphs are simple and highly adaptive auxiliary tools for graph signal processing. Based on a greedy-type metric clustering and augmentation scheme, we show how a partition of unity can be generated in an efficient way on graphs. We investigate how PUMs can be combined with a local graph basis function (GBF) approximation method in order to obtain low-cost global interpolation or classification schemes. From a theoretical point of view, we study necessary prerequisites for the partition of unity such that global error estimates of the PUM follow from corresponding local ones. Finally, properties of the PUM as cost-efficiency and approximation accuracy are investigated numerically.

In the field of graph signal processing (GSP), directed graphs present a particular challenge for the standard approaches of GSP to due to their asymmetric nature. The presence of negative- or complex-weight directed edges, a graphical structure used in fields such as neuroscience, critical infrastructure, and robot coordination, further complicates the issue. Recent results generalized the total variation of a graph signal to that of directed variation as a motivating principle for developing a graphical Fourier transform (GFT). Here, we extend these techniques to concepts of signal variation appropriate for indefinite and complex-valued graphs and use them to define a GFT for these classes of graph. Simulation results on random graphs are presented, as well as a case study of a portion of the fruit fly connectome.
For the interpolation of graph signals with generalized shifts of a graph basis function (GBF), we introduce the concept of positive definite functions on graphs. This concept merges kernel-based interpolation with spectral theory on graphs and can be regarded as a graph analog of radial basis function interpolation in euclidean spaces or spherical basis functions. We provide several descriptions of positive definite functions on graphs, the most relevant one is a Bochner-type characterization in terms of positive Fourier coefficients. These descriptions allow us to design GBFs and to study GBF interpolation in more detail: we are able to characterize the native spaces of the interpolants, we provide explicit estimates for the interpolation error and obtain bounds for the numerical stability. As a final application, we show how GBF interpolation can be used to get quadrature formulas on graphs.
In the past decade, significant progress has been made to generalize classical tools from Fourier analysis to analyze and process signals defined on networks. In this paper, we propose a new framework for constructing Gabor-type frames for signals on graphs. Our approach uses general and flexible families of linear operators acting as translations. Compared to previous work in the literature, our methods yield the sharp bounds for the associated frames, in a broad setting that generalizes several existing constructions. We also examine how Gabor-type frames behave for signals defined on Cayley graphs by exploiting the representation theory of the underlying group. We explore how natural classes of translations can be constructed for Cayley graphs, and how the choice of an eigenbasis can significantly impact the properties of the resulting translation operators and frames on the graph.
Matrix completion (MC) is a promising technique which is able to recover an intact matrix with low-rank property from sub-sampled/incomplete data. Its application varies from computer vision, signal processing to wireless network, and thereby receives much attention in the past several years. There are plenty of works addressing the behaviors and applications of MC methodologies. This work provides a comprehensive review for MC approaches from the perspective of signal processing. In particular, the MC problem is first grouped into six optimization problems to help readers understand MC algorithms. Next, four representative types of optimization algorithms solving the MC problem are reviewed. Ultimately, three different application fields of MC are described and evaluated.
Graph Laplacian (GL)-based semi-supervised learning is one of the most used approaches for classifying nodes in a graph. Understanding and certifying the adversarial robustness of machine learning (ML) algorithms has attracted large amounts of attention from different research communities due to its crucial importance in many security-critical applied domains. There is great interest in the theoretical certification of adversarial robustness for popular ML algorithms. In this paper, we provide the first adversarial robust certification for the GL classifier. More precisely we quantitatively bound the difference in the classification accuracy of the GL classifier before and after an adversarial attack. Numerically, we validate our theoretical certification results and show that leveraging existing adversarial defenses for the $k$-nearest neighbor classifier can remarkably improve the robustness of the GL classifier.
