The HyperBagGraph DataEdron: An Enriched Browsing Experience of Multimedia Datasets
Traditional verbatim browsers give back information in a linear way according
to a ranking performed by a search engine that may not be optimal for the
surfer. The latter may need to assess the pertinence of the information
retrieved, particularly when she wants to explore other facets of a
multi-facetted information space. For instance, in a multimedia dataset
different facets such as keywords, authors, publication category, organisations
and figures can be of interest. The facet simultaneous visualisation can help
to gain insights on the information retrieved and call for further searches.
Facets are co-occurence networks, modeled by HyperBag-Graphs -- families of
multisets -- and are in fact linked not only to the publication itself, but to
any chosen reference. These references allow to navigate inside the dataset and
perform visual queries. We explore here the case of scientific publications
based on Arxiv searches.Comment: Extension of the hypergraph framework shortly presented in

An introduction to Graph Data Management
A graph database is a database where the data structures for the schema
and/or instances are modeled as a (labeled)(directed) graph or generalizations
of it, and where querying is expressed by graph-oriented operations and type
constructors. In this article we present the basic notions of graph databases,
give an historical overview of its main development, and study the main current
systems that implement them
Outlaw distributions and locally decodable codes
Locally decodable codes (LDCs) are error correcting codes that allow for
decoding of a single message bit using a small number of queries to a corrupted
encoding. Despite decades of study, the optimal trade-off between query
complexity and codeword length is far from understood. In this work, we give a
new characterization of LDCs using distributions over Boolean functions whose
expectation is hard to approximate (in~~norm) with a small number of
samples. We coin the term `outlaw distributions' for such distributions since
they `defy' the Law of Large Numbers. We show that the existence of outlaw
distributions over sufficiently `smooth' functions implies the existence of
constant query LDCs and vice versa. We give several candidates for outlaw
distributions over smooth functions coming from finite field incidence
geometry, additive combinatorics and from hypergraph (non)expanders.
We also prove a useful lemma showing that (smooth) LDCs which are only
required to work on average over a random message and a random message index
can be turned into true LDCs at the cost of only constant factors in the
parameters.Comment: A preliminary version of this paper appeared in the proceedings of

Network Capacity Bound for Personalized PageRank in Multimodal Networks
In a former paper the concept of Bipartite PageRank was introduced and a
theorem on the limit of authority flowing between nodes for personalized
PageRank has been generalized. In this paper we want to extend those results to
multimodal networks. In particular we introduce a hypergraph type that may be
used for describing multimodal network where a hyperlink connects nodes from
each of the modalities. We introduce a generalisation of PageRank for such
graphs and define the respective random walk model that can be used for
computations. we finally state and prove theorems on the limit of outflow of
authority for cases where individual modalities have identical and distinct
damping factors.Comment: 28 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1702.0373
Efficient successor retrieval operations for aggregate query processing on clustered road networks
Cataloged from PDF version of article.Get-Successors (GS) which retrieves all successors of a junction is a kernel operation used to facilitate aggregate computations in road network queries. Efficient implementation of the GS operation is crucial since the disk access cost of this operation constitutes a considerable portion of the total query processing cost. Firstly, we propose a new successor retrieval operation Get-Unevaluated-Successors (GUS), which retrieves only the unevaluated successors of a given junction. The GUS operation is an efficient implementation of the GS operation, where the candidate successors to be retrieved are pruned according to the properties and state of the algorithm. Secondly, we propose a hypergraph-based model for clustering successively retrieved junctions by the GUS operations to the same pages. The proposed model utilizes query logs to correctly capture the disk access cost of GUS operations. The proposed GUS operation and associated clustering model are evaluated for two different instances of GUS operations which typically arise in Dijkstra's single source shortest path algorithm and incremental network expansion framework. Our simulation results show that the proposed successor retrieval operation together with the proposed clustering hypergraph model is quite effective in reducing the number of disk accesses in query processing.
