We propose a new exact algorithm for finding the chromatic number of a graph G. The algorithm attempts to determine the smallest possible induced subgraph G' of G which has t...
Currently, a large amount of data can be best represented as graphs, e.g., social networks, protein interaction networks, etc. The analysis of these networks is an urgent research ...
We exemplify an optimization criterion for divide-and-conquer algorithms with a technique called generic competitive graph search. The technique is then applied to solve two probl...
A graph property is called monotone if it is closed under taking (not necessarily induced) subgraphs (or, equivalently, if it is closed under removal of edges and vertices). Many ...
Mining graph patterns in large networks is critical to a variety of applications such as malware detection and biological module discovery. However, frequent subgraphs are often i...
