Recent research on pattern discovery has progressed from mining frequent patterns and sequences to mining structured patterns, such as trees and graphs. Graphs as general data structure can model complex relations among data with wide applications in web exploration and social networks. However, the process of mining large graph patterns is a challenge due to the existence of large number of subgraphs. In this paper, we aim to mine only frequent complete graph patterns. A graph g in a database is complete if every pair of distinct vertices is connected by a unique edge. Grid Complete Graph (GCG) is a mining algorithm developed to explore interesting pruning techniques to extract maximal complete graphs from large spatial dataset existing in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data. Using a divide and conquer strategy, GCG shows high efficiency especially in the presence of large number of patterns. In this paper, we describe GCG that can mine not only simple co-location spatial patterns but also complex ones. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first algorithm used to exploit the extraction of maximal complete graphs in the process of mining complex co-location patterns in large spatial dataset.
@cite_15 enhanced the algorithm proposed in @cite_9 and used it to mine special types of co-location relationships in addition to cliques, namely; the , and patterns. This means they didn't use maximal complete graphs.

We consider the enumeration of maximal bipartite cliques (bicliques) from a large graph, a task central to many practical data mining problems in social network analysis and bioinformatics. We present novel parallel algorithms for the MapReduce platform, and an experimental evaluation using Hadoop MapReduce. Our algorithm is based on clustering the input graph into smaller sized subgraphs, followed by processing different subgraphs in parallel. Our algorithm uses two ideas that enable it to scale to large graphs: (1) the redundancy in work between different subgraph explorations is minimized through a careful pruning of the search space, and (2) the load on different reducers is balanced through the use of an appropriate total order among the vertices. Our evaluation shows that the algorithm scales to large graphs with millions of edges and tens of millions of maximal bicliques. To our knowledge, this is the first work on maximal biclique enumeration for graphs of this scale. Several real-world applications require mining of bicliques, as they represent correlated pairs of data clusters. However, the mining quality is adversely affected by missing and noisy data. Moreover, some applications only require strong interactions between data members of the pairs, but bicliques are pairs that display complete interactions. We address these two limitations by proposing maximal quasi-bicliques. Maximal quasi-bicliques tolerate erroneous and missing data, and also relax the interactions between the data members of their pairs. Besides, maximal quasi-bicliques do not suffer from skewed distribution of missing edges that prior quasi-bicliques have. We develop an algorithm MQBminer, which mines the complete set of maximal quasi-bicliques from either bipartite or non-bipartite graphs. We demonstrate the versatility and effectiveness of maximal quasi-bicliques to discover highly correlated pairs of data in two diverse real-world datasets. First, we propose to solve a novel financial stocks analysis problem using maximal quasi-bicliques to co-cluster stocks and financial ratios. Results show that the stocks in our co-clusters usually have significant correlations in their price performance. Second, we use maximal quasi-bicliques on a mining protein network problem and we show that pairs of protein groups mined by maximal quasi-bicliques are more significant than those mined by maximal bicliques.

Specifically, we adapt parallel matrix multiplication implementations to the congested clique, obtaining an @math round matrix multiplication algorithm, where @math is the exponent of matrix multiplication. In conjunction with known techniques from centralised algorithmics, this gives significant improvements over previous best upper bounds in the congested clique model. The highlight results include: -- triangle and 4-cycle counting in @math rounds, improving upon the @math triangle detection algorithm of [DISC 2012], -- a @math -approximation of all-pairs shortest paths in @math rounds, improving upon the @math -round @math -approximation algorithm of Nanongkai [STOC 2014], and -- computing the girth in @math rounds, which is the first non-trivial solution in this model. In addition, we present a novel constant-round combinatorial algorithm for detecting 4-cycles. Extracting dense subgraphs from large graphs is a key primitive in a variety of graph mining applications, ranging from mining social networks and the Web graph to bioinformatics [41]. In this paper we focus on a family of poly-time solvable formulations, known as the k-clique densest subgraph problem (k-Clique-DSP) [57]. When k=2, the problem becomes the well-known densest subgraph problem (DSP) [22, 31, 33, 39]. Our main contribution is a sampling scheme that gives densest subgraph sparsifier, yielding a randomized algorithm that produces high-quality approximations while providing significant speedups and improved space complexity. We also extend this family of formulations to bipartite graphs by introducing the (p,q)-biclique densest subgraph problem ((p,q)-Biclique-DSP), and devise an exact algorithm that can treat both clique and biclique densities in a unified way. As an example of performance, our sparsifying algorithm extracts the 5-clique densest subgraph --which is a large-near clique on 62 vertices-- from a large collaboration network. Our algorithm achieves 100 accuracy over five runs, while achieving an average speedup factor of over 10,000. Specifically, we reduce the running time from ∼2 107 seconds to an average running time of 0.15 seconds. We also use our methods to study how the k-clique densest subgraphs change as a function of time in time-evolving networks for various small values of k. We observe significant deviations between the experimental findings on real-world networks and stochastic Kronecker graphs, a random graph model that mimics real-world networks in certain aspects. We believe that our work is a significant advance in routines with rigorous theoretical guarantees for scalable extraction of large near-cliques from networks.
