Graphs are fundamental data structures and have been employed for centuries to model real-world systems and phenomena. Random walk with restart (RWR) provides a good proximity score between two nodes in a graph, and it has been successfully used in many applications such as automatic image captioning, recommender systems, and link prediction. The goal of this work is to find nodes that have top-k highest proximities for a given node. Previous approaches to this problem find nodes efficiently at the expense of exactness. The main motivation of this paper is to answer, in the affirmative, the question, `Is it possible to improve the search time without sacrificing the exactness?. Our solution, {it K-dash}, is based on two ideas: (1) It computes the proximity of a selected node efficiently by sparse matrices, and (2) It skips unnecessary proximity computations when searching for the top-k nodes. Theoretical analyses show that K-dash guarantees result exactness. We perform comprehensive experiments to verify the efficiency of K-dash. The results show that K-dash can find top-k nodes significantly faster than the previous approaches while it guarantees exactness.
Betweenness centrality, measured by the number of times a vertex occurs on all shortest paths of a graph, has been recognized as a key indicator for the importance of a vertex in the network. However, the betweenness of a vertex is often very hard to
Trajectory similarity computation is a fundamental component in a variety of real-world applications, such as ridesharing, road planning, and transportation optimization. Recent advances in mobile devices have enabled an unprecedented increase in the
Top-k query processing finds a list of k results that have largest scores w.r.t the user given query, with the assumption that all the k results are independent to each other. In practice, some of the top-k results returned can be very similar to eac
Utility-driven itemset mining is widely applied in many real-world scenarios. However, most algorithms do not work for itemsets with negative utilities. Several efficient algorithms for high-utility itemset (HUI) mining with negative utilities have b
Episode discovery from an event is a popular framework for data mining tasks and has many real-world applications. An episode is a partially ordered set of objects (e.g., item, node), and each object is associated with an event type. This episode can
