Date: Wednesday, 12 June 2019
Time: 2:00pm - 3:00pm
Venue: Lecture Theater H (near lift no. 27/28), HKUST
Abstract:
As graph and network mining being a hot topic nowadays, in this talk, I will present a brief review of 15 years research in my group on this important topic. I will talk about how we started from building graph databases and graph indexes in 2004, and discuss the topics we researched including graph construction, graph databases, specialized graph databases (e.g., geographical networks and social networks), graph query answering, pattern mining in graphs, information flow and influence analysis on graphs, privacy preservation in social networks, machine learning on graphs from conventional classification and clustering to network embedding. From this narrow and relatively short memoir, I will try to summarize some experience and lessons learned on how to enter a new direction, which may be interesting and informative for graduate students and researchers.
