Towards Frequent Subgraph Mining on Single Large Uncertain Graphs
Yifan Chen, Xiang Hui Zhao, Xuemin Lin, Yang Wang · 2015
Uncertainty is intrinsic to a wide spectrum of real-life applications, which inevitably applies to graph data. Representative uncertain graphs are seen in bio-informatics, social networks, etc. This paper motivates the problem of frequent subgraph mining on single uncertain graphs. We present an enumeration-evaluation algorithm to solve the problem. By showing support computation on an uncertain graph is #P-hard, we develop an approximation algorithm with accuracy guarantee for this purpose. To enhance the solution, we devise optimization techniques to achieve better mining performance. Experiment results on real-life data confirm the usability of the algorithm.
