My highlighted notes for the following paper:
Sawicki, J., & Ganzha, M. (2024). Exploring Reddit Community Structure: Bridges, Gateways and Highways. Electronics, 13(10), 1935.
Sawicki and Ganzha analyze Reddit’s information structure using text embeddings derived from the DistilBERT model, applying graph and cosine similarity measures. They explore the concepts of gateways and bridges, finding significant overlap between the two, and introduce a new construct -- the highway -- defined as a path traversed by many of the shortest paths connecting communities. This addition extends prior notions by identifying a set of nodes along a path rather than a single key node.
Their work was an interesting read. The communities, gateways, and bridges do indeed make sense, mostly (exc. r/formuladank). In Table 1, Size=15 (first one), most subreddits are also SE Asia/India related. I do agree that gateways and bridges seem to be mostly similar -- but I didn't understand Figures 2 and 3.
Questions and obs
I was going through this chapter of the Algorithm Design Manual by Steven S. Skiena. Of course I was preparing for an interview - but since it was a research interview, the interviewer did not ask any of these questions. It was mostly HR-like questions releated to research and leadership. This book is a great one, aand I have a lot more to go through and practice.

Yesterday morning I was starting to prepare a research paper submission to SIGMOD 2026 (Round 4), and I was thinking of the key strategy to get the paper ready for submission. While the material is ready, I need to have the key motivating statements for the content of the paper, and connecting the dots. This, I hope, is what is needed.
The following relevant journals / conference proceedings have be identified to have high h5-index in the field of computer science and related areas. The h5-index is a metric that measures the largest number h such that h articles published in the last five complete calendar years have at least h citations each.
| S. No. | Journal/Conference Name | h5-index |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Nature | 490 |
| 2 | IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition | 450 |
| 4 | Science | 415 |
| 5 | Nature Communications | 399 |
