Tuesday, January 17, 2023 - 10:00 am to Friday, February 24, 2023 - 5:00 pm

Physics Colloquium: Modeling bipartite networks in a negatively curved space

Physics Colloquium: Modeling bipartite networks in a negatively curved space

Wednesday, February 8, 2023 - 4:00 pm

Dr. Aleksander Poleksic

UNI Computer Science Department

Abstract

Accurate embedding of a complex network in a metric space (a space equipped with a distance function) is of critical importance in nearly all downstream machine learning tasks, such as classification, clustering, regression, and probabilistic inference. State-of-the-art machine learning methods typically use the Euclidean (flat) space as the native space of complex networks. This approach has been questioned by recent theoretical studies that claim that complex systems reside in a space of negative Gaussian curvature. Building upon those ideas, we propose a methodology for accurate embedding of a bipartite network into the hyperbolic space. We demonstrate that our technique leads to improved prediction of associations between network objects, while lowering the embedding dimension by more than an order of magnitude compared to the existing approaches.
