Query: Regular Partitions and Their Use in Structural Pattern Recognition   Recent years are characterized by an unprecedented quantity of available
network data which are produced at an astonishing rate by an heterogeneous
variety of interconnected sensors and devices. This high-throughput generation
calls for the development of new effective methods to store, retrieve,
understand and process massive network data. In this thesis, we tackle this
challenge by introducing a framework to summarize large graphs based on
Szemer\'edi's Regularity Remma (RL), which roughly states that any sufficiently
large graph can almost entirely be partitioned into a bounded number of
random-like bipartite graphs. The partition resulting from the RL gives rise to
a summary, which inherits many of the essential structural properties of the
original graph. We first extend an heuristic version of the RL to improve its
efficiency and its robustness. We use the proposed algorithm to address
graph-based clustering and image segmentation tasks. In the second part of the
thesis, we introduce a new heuristic algorithm which is characterized by an
improvement of the summary quality both in terms of reconstruction error and of
noise filtering. We use the proposed heuristic to address the graph search
problem defined under a similarity measure. Finally, we study the linkage among
the regularity lemma, the stochastic block model and the minimum description
length. This study provide us a principled way to develop a graph decomposition
algorithm based on stochastic block model which is fitted using likelihood
maximization.
