Community Detection and Improved Detectability in Multiplex Networks
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORK SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING, 7(3), 1697–1709.
author keywords: Multiplexing; Stochastic processes; Belief propagation; Correlation; Periodic structures; Computational modeling; Bayes methods; Network theory (graphs); graphical models; belief propagation

Adaptive Metrics for Adaptive Samples
ALGORITHMS, 13(8).
author keywords: surface reconstruction; homology inference; adaptive sampling; topological data analysis
TL;DR:
The local-feature size definition of adaptive sampling used in surface reconstruction is generalized to relate it to an alternative metric on Euclidean space, making it simpler both to give adaptive sampling versions of homological inference results and to prove topological guarantees using the critical points theory of distance functions.

Predictive Student Modeling in Block-Based Programming Environments with Bayesian Hierarchical Models
Proceedings of the 28th ACM Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization.
TL;DR:
Evaluation results reveal that predictive student models that account for both the distributional and hierarchical factors outperform baseline models and suggest that Bayesian hierarchical modeling and representing individual differences in students can substantially improve models' accuracy for predicting student performance on post-tests.
