Efficient and Scalable Directed Densest Subgraph Discovery
Summary: Novel provable graph-reduction that isolates the directed densest subgraph into a much smaller instance, enabling drastic pruning. A gradient-projection approximation with faster convergence and an exact algorithm built on it, yielding up to 100× speedups.
