Mining Billion Node Graphs - Patterns and Algorithms
Christos Faloutsos
Cray Distinguished Lecture Series, U. Minnesota

ABSTRACT:

How do graphs look like? How do they evolve over time? How do rumors and viruses propagate on real graphs? We review some static and temporal 'laws', fast algorithms to spot deviations and outliers, and recent developments on virus propagation and immunization.
