Title: | Hubs in nearest-neighbor graphs: Origins, applications and challenges | Authors: | Radovanović, Miloš | Issue Date: | 25-Jun-2018 | Journal: | ACM International Conference Proceeding Series | Abstract: | © 2018 Copyright held by the owner/author(s). The tendency of k-nearest neighbor graphs constructed from tabular data using some distance measure to contain hubs, i.e. points with in-degree much higher than expected, has drawn a fair amount of attention in recent years due to the observed impact on techniques used in many application domains. This companion paper will summarize the tutorial organized in three parts: (1) Origins, which will discuss the causes of the emergence of hubs (and their low in-degree counterparts, the anti-hubs), and their relationships with dimensionality, neighborhood size, distance concentration, and the notion of centrality; (2) Applications, where we will present some notable effects of (anti-)hubs on techniques for machine learning, data mining and information retrieval, identify two different approaches to handling hubs adopted by researchers – through fighting or embracing their existence – and review techniques and applications belonging to the two groups; and (3) Challenges, which will discuss work in progress, open problems, and areas with significant opportunities for hub-related research. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/1530 | ISBN: | 9781450354899 | DOI: | 10.1145/3227609.3227691 |
