product_space: Atlas of Economic Complexity export network
Two networks of economic products, where a pair of products are connected if they are exported at similar rates by the same countries. The data are a projection from a bipartite network of nations and the products they export. Edges weights represent a similarity score (called "proximity"). Data based on UN Comtrade worldwide trade patterns. SITC network based on the Standard International Trade Classification and HS …

An Efficient Candidate-Free R-S Set Similarity Join Algorithm with the Filter-and-Verification Tree and MapReduce
Given two different collections of sets, the exact set similarity R-S Join finds all set pairs with similarity no less than a given threshold, which has widespread applications. While existing algorithms accelerate large-scale R-S Joins using a two-stage filter-and-verification framework along with the parallel and distributed MapReduce framework, they suffer from excessive candidate set pairs, leading to significant I/O, data transfer, and verification overhead, and ultimately degrading the pe…

Similarity-based fuzzy clustering scientific articles: potentials and challenges from mathematical and computational perspectives
Fuzzy clustering, which allows an article to belong to multiple clusters with soft membership degrees, plays a vital role in analyzing publication data. This problem can be formulated as a constrained optimization model, where the goal is to minimize the discrepancy between the similarity observed from data and the similarity derived from a predicted distribution. While this approach benefits from leveraging state-of-the-art optimization algorithms, tailoring them to work with real, massive dat…

S3AND: Efficient Subgraph Similarity Search Under Aggregated Neighbor Difference Semantics (Technical Report)
For the past decades, the \textit{subgraph similarity search} over a large-scale data graph has become increasingly important and crucial in many real-world applications, such as social network analysis, bioinformatics network analytics, knowledge graph discovery, and many others. While previous works on subgraph similarity search used various graph similarity metrics such as the graph isomorphism, graph edit distance, and so on, in this paper, we propose a novel problem, namely \textit{subgrap…

Algorithms and Hardness for Estimating Statistical Similarity
We introduce and study the computational problem of determining statistical similarity between probability distributions. For distributions $P$ and $Q$ over a finite sample space, their statistical similarity is defined as $S_{\mathrm{stat}}(P, Q) := \sum_x \min(P(x), Q(x))$. Despite its fundamental nature as a measure of similarity between distributions, capturing essential concepts such as Bayes error in prediction and hypothesis testing, this computational problem has not been previously exp…

Hierarchical Retrieval with Evidence Curation for Open-Domain Financial Question Answering on Standardized Documents
Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) based large language models (LLMs) are widely used in finance for their excellent performance on knowledge-intensive tasks. However, standardized documents (e.g., SEC filing) share similar formats such as repetitive boilerplate texts, and similar table structures. This similarity forces traditional RAG methods to misidentify near-duplicate text, leading to duplicate retrieval that undermines accuracy and completeness. To address these issues, we propose the …

much smaller scale, but Mayor Lurie's SF budget increasing money for cops and jails while slashing social services (eviction legal aid, food bank, etc.) rhymes with the federal bill throwing people off Medicaid to fund concentration camps and ICE.
