Just finished working through this very nice tutorial on learning over hypergraphs and simplicial complexes. arxiv.org/abs/2101.05510 An excellent resource for (re)gaining familiarity with the basics of the area if one is new (or grew skeptical at some point). h/t: Nate Veldt

So who's going to be at #SIAMACDA21 next week? Hoping to see some familiar faces! Austin Benson Rich Vuduc David Gleich Emilie Purvine David Bader Aydın Buluç Tim Davis Richard Peng ? PS. Check your email for instructions on participating in the Introduction Blitz on Monday!

Need data (networks, hypergraphs, tensors, ML, AI)? Here’s a timestamped and linked digest of Anthony Fauci’s emails arxiv.org/abs/2108.01239 from Jason Leopold FOIA request. With Austin Benson and Nate Veldt Data and Code github.com/nveldt/fauci-e…

Last week, Michael Bender, Bora Ucar (Bora UÇAR), I organized a community-building workshop for the SIAM Activity Group on Applied and Computational Discrete Algorithms (ACDA, SIAM ACDA) at Aussois, France.

SIAM Conference on Applied and Computational Discrete Algorithms (ACDA23), May 31 -- June 2, 2023 siam.org/conferences/cm… Important dates: Short Abstract and Submission Registration: Jan 9, 2023 Papers and Presentations-without-papers: Jan 16, 2023 #SIAMACDA23

SIAM Conference on Applied and Computational Discrete Algorithms (ACDA23) May 31 – June 2, 2023 Seattle, Washington, U.S. New submission due dates: Registering a submission: Jan 16; Paper submission deadline; Jan 23.

Today Ray Becker (@raybecker.bsky.social) led us through the paper by Austin Benson, Nate Veldt, and David Gleich titled "Fauci-Email: A JSON Digest of Anthony Fauci's Released Emails" doi.org/10.1609/icwsm.…

Excited to share that our paper "Faster Approximation Algorithms for Parameterized Graph Clustering and Edge Labeling" with Nate Veldt has been accepted as a full paper at #CIKM2023.

The November issue of SIAM News is now available! In this month's edition, Nate Veldt finds that even a seemingly minor generalization of the standard #hypergraph cut penalty yields a rich space of theoretical questions and #complexity results. Check it out! sinews.siam.org/Details-Page/g…
