面向大规模并行相关性聚类的全范数同时近似

Simultaneously Approximating All Norms for Massively Parallel Correlation Clustering

Nairen Cao, Shi Li, Jia Ye

AI总结:

本文针对相关性聚类的同时近似问题,通过归约到top-k范数并构造12.66近似分数聚类,结合5近似舍入算法,将单调对称范数下的近似比从6348大幅提升至63.3,并进一步给出近线性时间和MPC模型下的高效实现。

摘要:

我们重新审视由Davies、Moseley和Newman[DMN24]引入的相关性聚类问题中的同时近似模型。其目标是找到一个聚类,使得在所有顶点上的分歧向量的给定范数最小化。我们提出了一种高效算法,该算法生成的聚类对所有单调对称范数同时达到$63.3$近似。这显著优于Davies、Moseley和Newman[DMN24]先前给出的近似比$6348$,且先前结果仅适用于$\ell_p$-范数。为得到这一结果,我们首先利用Chakrabarty和Swamy[CS19]建立的单调对称范数与top-$k$范数之间的联系,将问题归约为同时近似所有top-$k$范数。然后我们开发了一种新颖的过程,为所有top-$k$范数构造$12.66$近似的分数聚类。我们的$63.3$近似比是通过将该过程与Kalhan、Makarychev和Zhou[KMZ19]的$5$近似舍入算法相结合而获得的。随后我们证明,在近似比损失$ε$的情况下,该算法可以调整为在近线性时间内运行,并适用于具有多对数轮数的MPC(大规模并行计算)模型。通过允许近似比进一步权衡至$(359+ε)$,MPC轮数可以减少到常数。

英文摘要:

We revisit the simultaneous approximation model for the correlation clustering problem introduced by Davies, Moseley, and Newman[DMN24]. The objective is to find a clustering that minimizes given norms of the disagreement vector over all vertices. We present an efficient algorithm that produces a clustering that is simultaneously a $63.3$-approximation for all monotone symmetric norms. This significantly improves upon the previous approximation ratio of $6348$ due to Davies, Moseley, and Newman[DMN24], which works only for $\ell_p$-norms. To achieve this result, we first reduce the problem to approximating all top-$k$ norms simultaneously, using the connection between monotone symmetric norms and top-$k$ norms established by Chakrabarty and Swamy [CS19]. Then we develop a novel procedure that constructs a $12.66$-approximate fractional clustering for all top-$k$ norms. Our $63.3$-approximation ratio is obtained by combining this with the $5$-approximate rounding algorithm by Kalhan, Makarychev, and Zhou[KMZ19]. We then demonstrate that with a loss of $ε$ in the approximation ratio, the algorithm can be adapted to run in nearly linear time and in the MPC (massively parallel computation) model with poly-logarithmic number of rounds. By allowing a further trade-off in the approximation ratio to $(359+ε)$, the number of MPC rounds can be reduced to a constant.
