    Local Algorithms for Block Models with Side Information

    Full text link
    There has been a recent interest in understanding the power of local algorithms for optimization and inference problems on sparse graphs. Gamarnik and Sudan (2014) showed that local algorithms are weaker than global algorithms for finding large independent sets in sparse random regular graphs. Montanari (2015) showed that local algorithms are suboptimal for finding a community with high connectivity in the sparse Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs. For the symmetric planted partition problem (also named community detection for the block models) on sparse graphs, a simple observation is that local algorithms cannot have non-trivial performance. In this work we consider the effect of side information on local algorithms for community detection under the binary symmetric stochastic block model. In the block model with side information each of the nn vertices is labeled ++ or - independently and uniformly at random; each pair of vertices is connected independently with probability a/na/n if both of them have the same label or b/nb/n otherwise. The goal is to estimate the underlying vertex labeling given 1) the graph structure and 2) side information in the form of a vertex labeling positively correlated with the true one. Assuming that the ratio between in and out degree a/ba/b is Θ(1)\Theta(1) and the average degree (a+b)/2=no(1) (a+b) / 2 = n^{o(1)}, we characterize three different regimes under which a local algorithm, namely, belief propagation run on the local neighborhoods, maximizes the expected fraction of vertices labeled correctly. Thus, in contrast to the case of symmetric block models without side information, we show that local algorithms can achieve optimal performance for the block model with side information.Comment: Due to the limitation "The abstract field cannot be longer than 1,920 characters", the abstract here is shorter than that in the PDF fil

    Reconciling Institutions With Presidential Skills: A Framework Designed Throw a Metaphor Resource

    Context factors and institutional aspects have dominated explanations of republic multiparty regimes, especially in developing countries. However, given the various events of high instability and institutional fragility that these countries are going through, theoretical arguments are insufficient to understand the new scenarios. In this article, we make two main arguments. First, the strategies and profile of presidential terms will only be effectively detected with the help of a skill set demonstrated or acquired by presidents. Second, the interpretation of multiparty presidentialism can be better conceived through a systemic theoretical construct. As a method, we propose the application of an integrative framework with the help of the heuristic resource of the metaphor. Using the Brazilian case as support, the inclusion of the presidential skills approach and application of the integrative framework allowed us to connect, illustrate and better understand the dynamic profile of multiparty political systems

    The Relation Between the Growth in the Number of Female Single Parent Families and the Number of Women Imprisonment in Brazil

    This article proposes to analyze the current conjecture of Brazil in which it was observed by the studies a relevant growth in female single-parent families combined with the observation that in face of the situation in these families, women are driven to crime and consequently to prison. Female single-parent families with children are more “vulnerable” in economic terms, in food supplies and in the caring provided to the children. In this way, families that are headed by these women occur in these circumstances, often allied to their will and consequently the entering of these women in world of crime, so their imprisonment interferes in the whole family. Therefore, we aim with this article to establish a relation between this increase in the number of families headed by women and the increase of women deprived of liberty. The theoretical and methodological support that conducted this research is anchored in the socioeconomic perspective, starting from an investigation of incarcerated women, the family situation and the type of crime committed, since most women do not commit violent crimes. Within a qualitative approach, being the technical procedure adopted of a descriptive-analytical character, carried out through analysis of bibliographic content and data. In this way, we will discuss the socioeconomic reality of incarcerated women, the family situation and how this situation affects the committing of crime and, consequently, incarceration. There would be a concrete relationship between two data, an increase in the number of female single-parent families and because of that, an increase in the number of incarcerated women? It appears that women in situation of vulnerability are the majority among prisoners and considering the circumstances they are arrested it stays very clear the gender hierarchy in social and prison environment which they are subjected. In advance, we noticed that there is a need to create more public policies that promote social justice and greater support for families where women are the main supporters in order to minimize their possible entry into the world of crime.

    ABSTRACT: This article reports the implementation of a teaching program, mediator of the integrated teaching of the development of the print text and hypertext comprehension skill in LE, and put into action by means of several pedagogical tasks inserted in a site and complemented with face-to-face teaching. Three questions shaped the course of the research: a) Do students effectively explore strategies while reading print text? b) Which of those strategies are used in hypertext interaction? c) Are there specific hypertext strategies? Which? The interactive reading models and the (meta)cognitive learning theories guided my classroom practice and the pedagogical material design

    Com uma area de mais de dois milhoes de hectares plantados com fruteiras , o Brasil ja foi o maior produtor mundial de frutas, estando hoje em segundo lugar. (...) Este trabalho tem como objetivo estudar a frequencia de irrigacao na performance produtiva de dois tipos delecionados de acerola, nas condicoes do litoral cearense. Estas plntas foram obtidas originariamente a partir de sementes coletadas por pesquisadores do CNPAT em 1989, na Fazenda CAJUBA, em Nova Soure, BA (...)
