High-performance graph analysis is unlocking knowledge in computer security, bioinformatics, social networks, and many other data integration areas. Graphs provide a convenient abstraction for many data problems beyond linear algebra. Some problems map directly to linear algebra. Others, like community detection, look eerily similar to sparse linear algebra techniques. And then there are algorithms that strongly resist attempts at making them look like linear algebra. This talk will cover recent results with an emphasis on streaming graph problems where the graph changes and results need updated with minimal latency. We’ll also touch on issues of sensitivity and reliability where graph analysis needs to learn from numerical analysis and linear algebra.
