AI总结:

针对现有超图$k$-核扩展假设超边脆弱的局限,提出基于成员保留比例的$(k,t)$-超核模型,证明其线性时间复杂度,验证真实超图的结构相似性,并展示其在多类超图分析任务中的应用。

摘要:

超图是建模高阶关系的强大抽象工具,这类关系在众多领域中普遍存在。超图由节点和超边(即节点的子集)组成;已有诸多研究尝试将在成对图中应用广泛且被证实有效的$k$-核概念扩展到超图中。然而,此前的扩展均基于一个不切实际的假设:超边是脆弱的,即只要有一个成员离开,高阶关系就会失效。\n在本研究中,我们基于“只要至少$t$比例的成员保留,高阶关系就仍然成立”的假设,提出了一种名为$(k, t)$-超核的新型子结构模型。具体而言,它被定义为满足以下两个条件的极大子超图:(1)每个节点至少包含在其中的$k$条超边中;(2)每条超边中至少保留$t$比例的节点。我们首先证明,在给定$t$(或$k$)的情况下,针对所有可能的$k$(或$t$)求解$(k, t)$-超核的时间复杂度与超边大小之和呈线性关系。随后,我们证实来自同一领域的真实超图具有相似的$(k, t)$-超核结构,这些结构会根据$t$的不同捕捉到不同视角的信息。最后,我们展示了该模型在识别超图中的影响力节点、稠密子结构以及脆弱性方面的成功应用。

英文摘要:

Hypergraphs are a powerful abstraction for modeling high-order relations, which are ubiquitous in many fields. A hypergraph consists of nodes and hyperedges (i.e., subsets of nodes); and there have been a number of attempts to extend the notion of $k$-cores, which proved useful with numerous applications for pairwise graphs, to hypergraphs. However, the previous extensions are based on an unrealistic assumption that hyperedges are fragile, i.e., a high-order relation becomes obsolete as soon as a single member leaves it. In this work, we propose a new substructure model, called ($k$, $t$)-hypercore, based on the assumption that high-order relations remain as long as at least $t$ fraction of the members remain. Specifically, it is defined as the maximal subhypergraph where (1) every node is contained in at least $k$ hyperedges in it and (2) at least $t$ fraction of the nodes remain in every hyperedge. We first prove that, given $t$ (or $k$), finding the ($k$, $t$)-hypercore for every possible $k$ (or $t$) can be computed in time linear w.r.t the sum of the sizes of hyperedges. Then, we demonstrate that real-world hypergraphs from the same domain share similar ($k$, $t$)-hypercore structures, which capture different perspectives depending on $t$. Lastly, we show the successful applications of our model in identifying influential nodes, dense substructures, and vulnerability in hypergraphs.
