The tree reconstruction problem is to collect and analyze massive data at the $n$th level of the tree, to identify whether there is non-vanishing information of the root, as $n$ goes to infinity. Its connection to the clustering problem in the setting of the stochastic block model, which has wide applications in machine learning and data mining, has been well established. For the stochastic block model, an "information-theoretically-solvable-but-computationally-hard" region, or say "hybrid-hard…

• 2021
This paper analyzes the tree reconstruction problem by studying a general model which incorporates the characteristics of both Ising and Potts through different in-community and out-community transition probabilities, and rigorously establishing the exact conditions for reconstruction.

• Computer Science
Journal of Statistical Physics
• 2019
It is rigorously shown that the reconstruction bound is not tight when the sum of the base frequencies of adenine and thymine falls in the interval of 0,1/2-\sqrt{3}/6\right)\bigcup, which is the first rigorous result on asymmetric noisy channels with community effects.

### Non-Reconstructability in the Stochastic Block Model

• Mathematics, Computer Science

A key ingredient in the result is a new connection between non-reconstructability and non-distinguishability of the block model from an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi model with the same average degree.

### Large Degree Asymptotics and the Reconstruction Threshold of the Asymmetric Binary Channels

Journal of Statistical Physics

By means of refined analyses of moment recursion on a weighted version of the magnetization, and concentration investigations, a complete answer is given to the question of how small it needs to be to establish the tightness of the reconstruction threshold and further determine its asymptotics of large degrees.

### Reconstruction for the Potts model

This work confirms conjectures made by Mezard and Montanari for the Potts models proving the first exact reconstruction threshold in a non-binary model establishing the so-called Kesten-Stigum bound for the 3-state Potts model on regular trees of large degree and determines asymptotics for these reconstruction thresholds.

### Reconstruction on Trees: Beating the Second Eigenvalue

It is shown that, both for the binary asymmetric channel and for the symmetric channel on many symbols, it is sometimes possible to reconstruct even when dλ22(M) < 1, indicating that, for many (maybe most) tree-indexed Markov chains, the location of the data on the boundary plays a crucial role in reconstruction problems.

R rigidity is proved by showing that with high probability an exact recovery of the community structure is possible and that, in this setting, any suitably good partial recovery can be bootstrapped to obtain a full Recovery of the communities.

The results show that the instability of the trivial fixed point is not generic evidence for the Bayes optimality of the message-passing algorithms, and shed light on the existence of hybrid-hard phases for a large class of planted constraint satisfaction problems.
