    Graphs are widely used in large scale social network analysis. Graph mining increasingly important in modelling complicated structures such as circuits, images, web, biological networks and social networks. The major problems occur in this graph mining are computational efficiency (CE) and frequent subgraph mining (FSM). Computational Efficiency describes the extent to which the time, effort or efficiency which use computing technology in information processing. Frequent Sub graph Mining is the mechanism of candidate generation without duplicates. FSM faces the problem on counting the instances of the patterns in the dataset and counting of instances for graphs. The main objective of this project is to address CE and FSM problems. The paper cited in the reference proposes an algorithm called Mirage algorithm to solve queries using subgraph mining. The proposed work focuses on enhancing An Iterative Map Reduce based Frequent Subgraph Mining Algorithm (MIRAGE) to consider optimum computational efficiency. The test data to be considered for this mining algorithm can be from any domains such as medical, text and social data2019;s (twitter). The major contributions are: an iterative MapReduce based frequent sub graph mining algorithm called MIRAGE used to address the frequent sub graph mining problem

    Mining Frequent Neighborhood Patterns in Large Labeled Graphs

    Over the years, frequent subgraphs have been an important sort of targeted patterns in the pattern mining literatures, where most works deal with databases holding a number of graph transactions, e.g., chemical structures of compounds. These methods rely heavily on the downward-closure property (DCP) of the support measure to ensure an efficient pruning of the candidate patterns. When switching to the emerging scenario of single-graph databases such as Google Knowledge Graph and Facebook social graph, the traditional support measure turns out to be trivial (either 0 or 1). However, to the best of our knowledge, all attempts to redefine a single-graph support resulted in measures that either lose DCP, or are no longer semantically intuitive. This paper targets mining patterns in the single-graph setting. We resolve the "DCP-intuitiveness" dilemma by shifting the mining target from frequent subgraphs to frequent neighborhoods. A neighborhood is a specific topological pattern where a vertex is embedded, and the pattern is frequent if it is shared by a large portion (above a given threshold) of vertices. We show that the new patterns not only maintain DCP, but also have equally significant semantics as subgraph patterns. Experiments on real-life datasets display the feasibility of our algorithms on relatively large graphs, as well as the capability of mining interesting knowledge that is not discovered in prior works.Comment: 9 page

    Frequent subgraph mining algorithms on weighted graphs

    Get PDF
    This thesis describes research work undertaken in the field of graph-based knowledge discovery (or graph mining). The objective of the research is to investigate the benefits that the concept of weighted frequent subgraph mining can offer in the context of the graph model based classification. Weighted subgraphs are graphs where some of the vertexes/edges are considered to be more significant than others. How to discover frequent sub-structures with different strengths is the main issue to be resolved in this thesis. The main approach to addressing this issue is to integrate weight constraints into the frequent subgraph mining process. It is suggested that the utilization of weighted frequent subgraph mining generates more discriminate and significant subgraphs, which will have application in, for example, the classification and clustering of graph data

    Ribofsm: Frequent Subgraph Mining For the Discovery of RNA Structures and Interactions

    Get PDF
    Frequent subgraph mining is a useful method for extracting meaningful patterns from a set of graphs or a single large graph. Here, the graph represents all possible RNA structures and interactions. Patterns that are significantly more frequent in this graph over a random graph are extracted. We hypothesize that these patterns are most likely to represent biological mechanisms. The graph representation used is a directed dual graph, extended to handle intermolecular interactions. The graph is sampled for subgraphs, which are labeled using a canonical labeling method and counted. The resulting patterns are compared to those created from a randomized dataset and scored. The algorithm was applied to the mitochondrial genome of the kinetoplastid species Trypanosoma brucei, which has a unique RNA editing mechanism. The most significant patterns contain two stem-loops, indicative of gRNA, and represent interactions of these structures with target mRNA

    Frequent Subgraph Mining in Outerplanar Graphs

    Get PDF
    In recent years there has been an increased interest in frequent pattern discovery in large databases of graph structured objects. While the frequent connected subgraph mining problem for tree datasets can be solved in incremental polynomial time, it becomes intractable for arbitrary graph databases. Existing approaches have therefore resorted to various heuristic strategies and restrictions of the search space, but have not identified a practically relevant tractable graph class beyond trees. In this paper, we define the class of so called tenuous outerplanar graphs, a strict generalization of trees, develop a frequent subgraph mining algorithm for tenuous outerplanar graphs that works in incremental polynomial time, and evaluate the algorithm empirically on the NCI molecular graph dataset

    Mining Representative Unsubstituted Graph Patterns Using Prior Similarity Matrix

    One of the most powerful techniques to study protein structures is to look for recurrent fragments (also called substructures or spatial motifs), then use them as patterns to characterize the proteins under study. An emergent trend consists in parsing proteins three-dimensional (3D) structures into graphs of amino acids. Hence, the search of recurrent spatial motifs is formulated as a process of frequent subgraph discovery where each subgraph represents a spatial motif. In this scope, several efficient approaches for frequent subgraph discovery have been proposed in the literature. However, the set of discovered frequent subgraphs is too large to be efficiently analyzed and explored in any further process. In this paper, we propose a novel pattern selection approach that shrinks the large number of discovered frequent subgraphs by selecting the representative ones. Existing pattern selection approaches do not exploit the domain knowledge. Yet, in our approach we incorporate the evolutionary information of amino acids defined in the substitution matrices in order to select the representative subgraphs. We show the effectiveness of our approach on a number of real datasets. The results issued from our experiments show that our approach is able to considerably decrease the number of motifs while enhancing their interestingness

    Inductive queries for a drug designing robot scientist

    Get PDF
    It is increasingly clear that machine learning algorithms need to be integrated in an iterative scientific discovery loop, in which data is queried repeatedly by means of inductive queries and where the computer provides guidance to the experiments that are being performed. In this chapter, we summarise several key challenges in achieving this integration of machine learning and data mining algorithms in methods for the discovery of Quantitative Structure Activity Relationships (QSARs). We introduce the concept of a robot scientist, in which all steps of the discovery process are automated; we discuss the representation of molecular data such that knowledge discovery tools can analyse it, and we discuss the adaptation of machine learning and data mining algorithms to guide QSAR experiments

    Dynamic load balancing for the distributed mining of molecular structures

    In molecular biology, it is often desirable to find common properties in large numbers of drug candidates. One family of methods stems from the data mining community, where algorithms to find frequent graphs have received increasing attention over the past years. However, the computational complexity of the underlying problem and the large amount of data to be explored essentially render sequential algorithms useless. In this paper, we present a distributed approach to the frequent subgraph mining problem to discover interesting patterns in molecular compounds. This problem is characterized by a highly irregular search tree, whereby no reliable workload prediction is available. We describe the three main aspects of the proposed distributed algorithm, namely, a dynamic partitioning of the search space, a distribution process based on a peer-to-peer communication framework, and a novel receiverinitiated load balancing algorithm. The effectiveness of the distributed method has been evaluated on the well-known National Cancer Institute’s HIV-screening data set, where we were able to show close-to linear speedup in a network of workstations. The proposed approach also allows for dynamic resource aggregation in a non dedicated computational environment. These features make it suitable for large-scale, multi-domain, heterogeneous environments, such as computational grids
