Abstract

Several algorithms, namely CubeMiner , Trias , and Data-Peeler , have been recently proposed to mine closed patterns in ternary relations. We consider here the specific context where a ternary relation denotes the value of a graph adjacency matrix at different timestamps. Then, we discuss the constraint-based extraction of patterns in such dynamic graphs. We formalize the concept of *** -contiguous closed 3-clique and we discuss the availability of a complete algorithm for mining them. It is based on a specialization of the enumeration strategy implemented in Data-Peeler . Indeed, clique relevancy can be specified by means of a conjunction of constraints which can be efficiently exploited. The added-value of our strategy is assessed on a real dataset about a public bicycle renting system. The raw data encode the relationships between the renting stations during one year. The extracted *** -contiguous closed 3-cliques are shown to be consistent with our domain knowledge on the considered city.
