Estimating posterior inference quality of the relational infinite latent feature model for overlapping community detection

Overlapping community detection has become a very hot research topic in recent decades,and a plethora of methods have been proposed.But,a common challenge in many existing overlapping community detection approaches is that the number of communities K must be predefined manually.We propose a flexible nonparametric Bayesian generative model for count-value networks,which can allow K to increase as more and more data are encountered instead of to be fixed in advance.The Indian buffet process was used to model the community assignment matrix Z,and an uncol-lapsed Gibbs sampler has been derived.However,as the community assignment matrix Zis a structured multi-variable parameter,how to summarize the posterior inference results andestimate the inference quality about Z,is still a considerable challenge in the literature.In this paper,a graph convolutional neural network based graph classifier was utilized to help tosummarize the results and to estimate the inference qualityabout Z.We conduct extensive experiments on synthetic data and real data,and find that empirically,the traditional posterior summarization strategy is reliable.

A posteriori error estimates for optimal control problems constrained by convection-diffusion equations

We propose a characteristic finite element evolutionary type convection-diffusion optimal control discretization of problems. Non- divergence-free velocity fields and bilateral inequality control constraints are handled. Then some residual type a posteriori error estimates are analyzed for the approximations of the control, the state, and the adjoint state. Based on the derived error estimators, we use them as error indicators in developing efficient multi-set adaptive meshes characteristic finite element algorithm for such optimal control problems. Finally, one numerical example is given to check the feasibility and validity of multi-set adaptive meshes refinements.

MRF model and FRAME model-based unsupervised image segmentation

This paper presents a method for unsupervised segmentation of images consisting of multiple textures. The images under study are modeled by a proposed hierarchical random field model, which has two layers. The first layer is modeled as a Markov Random Field (MRF) representing an unobservable region image and the second layer uses 'Filters, Random and Maximum Entropy (Abb. FRAME)' model to represent multiple textures which cover each region. Compared with the traditional Hierarchical Markov Random Field (HMRF), the FRAME can use a bigger neighborhood system and model more complex patterns. The segmentation problem is formulated as Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) estimation according to the Bayesian rule. The iterated conditional modes (ICM) algorithm is carried out to find the solution of the MAP estimation. An algorithm based on the local entropy rate is proposed to simplify the estimation of the parameters of MRF. The parameters of FRAME are estimated by the ExpectationMaximum (EM) algorithm. Finally, an experiment with synthesized and real images is given, which shows that the method can segment images with complex textures efficiently and is robust to noise.
