Abstract

Currently, constraints are increasingly considered as a kind of means of user- or expert-control for filtering those unsatisfied and redundant patterns rapidly during the web mining process. Recent work has highlighted the importance of constraint-based mining paradigm in the context of frequent itemsets, sequences, and many other interesting patterns in large database. However, it is still not clear how to push various constraints systematically into graph mining process. In this paper, we categorize various graph-based constraints into several major classes and develop a framework CabGin (i.e. Constraint-based Graph Mining) to push them into mining process by their categories. Non-monotonic aggregates like average also can be pushed into CabGin with minor revision. Experimental results show that CabGin can prunes a large search space effectively by pushing graph-based constraints into mining process.
