CEMR: An Effective Subgraph Matching Algorithm with Redundant Extension Elimination

Subgraph matching is a fundamental problem in graph analysis with a wide range of applications. However, due to its inherent NP-hardness, enumerating subgraph matches efficiently on large real-world graphs remains highly challenging. Most existing works adopt a depth-first search (DFS) backtracking strategy, where a partial embedding is gradually extended in a DFS manner along a branch of the search trees until either a full embedding is found or no further extension is possible. A major limitation of this paradigm is the significant amount of duplicate computation that occurs during enumeration, which increases the overall runtime. To overcome this limitation, we propose a novel subgraph matching algorithm, CEMR. It incorporates two techniques to reduce duplicate extensions: common extension merging, which leverages a black-white vertex encoding, and common extension reusing, which employs common extension buffers. In addition, we design two pruning techniques to discard unpromising search branches. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets and diverse query workloads demonstrate that CEMR outperforms state-of-the-art subgraph matching methods.

Dolha - an Efficient and Exact Data Structure for Streaming Graphs

A streaming graph is a graph formed by a sequence of incoming edges with time stamps. Unlike static graphs, the streaming graph is highly dynamic and time related. In the real world, the high volume and velocity streaming graphs such as internet traffic data, social network communication data and financial transfer data are bringing challenges to the classic graph data structures. We present a new data structure: double orthogonal list in hash table (Dolha) which is a high speed and high memory efficiency graph structure applicable to streaming graph. Dolha has constant time cost for single edge and near linear space cost that we can contain billions of edges information in memory size and process an incoming edge in nanoseconds. Dolha also has linear time cost for neighborhood queries, which allow it to support most algorithms in graphs without extra cost. We also present a persistent structure based on Dolha that has the ability to handle the sliding window update and time related queries.

Fast and Accurate Graph Stream Summarization

A graph stream is a continuous sequence of data items, in which each item indicates an edge, including its two endpoints and edge weight. It forms a dynamic graph that changes with every item in the stream. Graph streams play important roles in cyber security, social networks, cloud troubleshooting systems and other fields. Due to the vast volume and high update speed of graph streams, traditional data structures for graph storage such as the adjacency matrix and the adjacency list are no longer sufficient. However, prior art of graph stream summarization, like CM sketches, gSketches, TCM and gMatrix, either supports limited kinds of queries or suffers from poor accuracy of query results. In this paper, we propose a novel Graph Stream Sketch (GSS for short) to summarize the graph streams, which has the linear space cost (O(|E|), E is the edge set of the graph) and the constant update time complexity (O(1)) and supports all kinds of queries over graph streams with the controllable errors. Both theoretical analysis and experiment results confirm the superiority of our solution with regard to the time/space complexity and query results' precision compared with the state-of-the-art.
