CGS: Configurable Graph Summarization with Bounded Neighborhood Loss and Query Support2607.10969AuthorsShubhadip Mitra,Sona Elza Simon,C Oswald,Arnab Bhattacharya,Arindam PalAbstractGiven a large graph, how to generate a compact summary graph that is configurable by the user and supports multiple graph queries with either no loss or with high accuracy? The ever growing size of graph datasets makes the above question on graph summarization very pertinent. Although, there are several approaches, there does not exist a configurable graph summarization method that offers high compression along with support for multiple graph queries on the summary graph with high accuracy, and allows the user to configure the summarization based on: (1) lossless or lossy summarization, (2) amount of tolerable neighborhood loss, (3) the type of loss it can tolerate, in terms of false positive edges (i.e., extra edges), false negative edges (i.e., missing edges), or neither, in both the (a) reconstructed graph and the (b) query answers. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel graph summarization framework CGS (Configurable Graph Summarizer) that builds upon the idea of aggregating nodes with common neighborhoods. The CGS framework consists of three summarization variants, CGS-E, CGS-I and CGS-U. While CGS-E is a lossless scheme, CGS-I and CGS-U are lossy schemes that allow reconstruction of the input graph with no false positive edges and no false negative edges, respectively. To bound the graph reconstruction loss, we introduce a user-specified parameter neighborhood loss tolerance threshold, that limits the maximum loss allowed in the neighborhood of each node. This allows graph reconstruction and neighborhood query evaluation with either no loss or with bounded loss guarantees. Empirical evaluation on several synthetic and real-world graphs shows that CGS offers superior summarization than the state-of-the-art methods, and can answer graph queries with fairly high accuracy and efficiency.ResourcesView on Hugging FaceRead PDFArXiv

ResearchLearning When to Trust via Selective Context Preference Optimization
Language models increasingly condition their answers on external signals, and a single misleading one can turn a correct answer wrong. The obvious remedy, training models to resist such signals, hides a failure mode: a model that ignores all context looks robust yet is useless when the context is worth trusting. We recast the problem as selective trust and introduce MIST, a human-annotated benchmark that renders each reasoning item under four matched conditions (clean, misleading, correct-context, and irrelevant-context), together with SC2W, a paired metric counting how often a misle

ResearchTracing the Heart: An Evidence-Linked Pipeline for Heart-Failure Feature Engineering
Electronic health record (EHR) feature engineering is a major bottleneck in clinical research and AI, accounting for 39-45% of data scientists' workload. This is especially pronounced in heart failure, which affects an estimated 6.7 million U.S. adults and requires integrating fragmented EHR data with disease-specific, guideline-based clinical reasoning. Existing rule-based and large language model (LLM)-based approaches offer only partial automation with limited maintainability and evidence traceability. We developed the Nimblemind Multi-Agent System (nMAS), an evidence-linked, rubr
