DynaWAVE and WAVE

Dynamic (or temporal) networks are networks whose interactions are time dependent. DynaWAVE aligns two dynamic networks while taking temporal information into account. WAVE aligns two static networks. [code]

IsoRank and PageRank

IsoRank is a network alignment algorithm that produces a node mapping from one network to another by calculating the topological similarity of nodes between the two networks. IsoRank calculates topological similarity by calculating the performing PageRank on the product graph of the two graphs. [code]

Ray casting for deformable triangular meshes

Matlab code that provides an interface to OPCODE. It creates a tree structure of a triangular mesh that allows us to perform ray-mesh intersections efficiently. The tree can be modified efficiently when the mesh is deformed, as opposed to recreating the tree from the mesh. [code]

Fast SVD and PCA

Matlab code that does truncated Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) faster than using Matlab’s svd and svds functions. [code]
