THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF N00014-14-1-0823 INFERENCE AND DYNAMICS ON NETWORKS
Abstract
The proposal is to study inference problems involving networks. The mathe- matical and algorithmic ideas involve a number of disciplines in mathematics, statistics and computer science. Many network models provide only a rough approximation to the actual phenomena they aim to model. A major goal of the proposal is to study agnostic inference on networks. Thus instead of assuming that networks models are accurate and then infer- ence is performed, it is assumed that the networks models are just approximately correct and then the goal is to infer as best as possible given the approximation. Other goals of the proposal include inference of communities and the genealogy of networks and studying opinion dynamics and competition on networks both in the exact and the agnostic setup.
