  介绍

 Various networks ranging from social networks, collaboration networks to biological networks, have grown steadily. Among many graph algorithms, subgraph matching has been extensively studied, which is to find matchings for a user-given query graph q in a large data graph G by subgraph isomorphism.

 To support subgraph matching, there are native graph approaches and relational-based approaches. We discuss the bridge from subgraph isomorphism to homomorphism on which the relational-based approaches are designed. In addition, we discuss a new type of subgraph matching, called symmetric subgraph matching (SSM). Different from subgraph matching, for SSM, a user-given query graph q must be a subgraph that exists in the data graph G to be matched. Let g be a matching of q in G. From a global viewpoint, g and q are equivalent in the sense that the entire graph G remains unchanged if one is replaced by the other. SSM is related to graph automorphism, which is an isomorphism from a graph to itself.  

 We will also discuss some applications of symmetric subgraph matching in this talk.
