Abstract
Motivated by the prevalent data science applications of processing large-scale graph data such as social networks and biological networks, this paper investigates lossless compression of data in the form of a labeled graph. Particularly, we consider a widely used random graph model, stochastic block model (SBM), which captures the clustering effects in social networks. An information-theoretic universal compression framework is applied, in which one aims to design a single compressor that achieves the asymptotically optimal compression rate, for every SBM distribution, without knowing the parameters of the SBM. Such a graph compressor is proposed in this paper, which universally achieves the optimal compression rate with polynomial time complexity for a wide class of SBMs. Existing universal compression techniques are developed mostly for stationary ergodic one-dimensional sequences. However, the adjacency matrix of SBM has complex two-dimensional correlations. The challenge is alleviated through a carefully designed transform that converts two-dimensional correlated data into almost i.i.d. submatrices. The sequence of submatrices is then compressed by a Krichevsky--Trofimov compressor, whose length analysis is generalized to identically distributed but arbitrarily correlated sequences. In four benchmark graph datasets, the compressed files from competing algorithms take 2.4 to 27 times the space needed by the proposed scheme.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
