arXiv:2608.16315v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Correlation clustering is a fundamental unsupervised learning problem. On complete graphs, both the min-disagreement and min-max objectives admit constant-factor approximations, yet on general (non-complete) graphs, the best guarantees blow up to $O(\log n)$ and $O(\sqrt{n})$. This gap between the two regimes motivates the following question: are there classes of incomplete graphs that circumvent the lower bounds on general graphs and admit approximation guarantees approaching those attainable on complete graphs? We study a natural class of graphs obtained by randomly subsampling a complete signed graph $G$, where each edge is independently deleted with probability $q$. For such graph instances both for the min-max and the min-disagreement objectives, we prove approximation guarantees (depending on $q$) that are substantially better than the bounds achievable for general graphs. We supplement our theoretical results with experiments that also suggest that the approximation ratios of our algorithm are close to those of the complete graph and better than the worst-case bounds for general (non-complete) graphs.
