Outline:

The idea for this workshop is to bring together researchers from graph signal processing, multivariate extremes and graphical models/ algebraic statistics to discuss theoretical and methodological intersections and to foster future collaborations. Some key points of interest:

• Laplacian matrices in graphical extremes and graph signal processing.

• Sparsity in graph Laplacians: Extremal conditional independence, CI ideals and sparse signals.

• Algebraic statistics and graphical extremes.

• Graph Laplacians and Euclidean distance matrices: Combinatorial and geometric tools for statistics.

• Statistical Graph Signal Processing.

• Learning in graph data, representation learning in graphs.

• Inference of graph topology.

• Geometric Deep Learning.

• Applications of Graph Signal Processing on network-structured data (such as in communication networks, health care, social networks, drug discovery).
