Abstract

Data mining is a relatively new and promising field of computer science. It is used for extracting valuable information or knowledge from large database. Data mining requires searching for frequent patterns from large database. Frequent substructure mining is also denoted by graph mining. Some of the graph mining algorithms were Apriori based and path based. gIndex is more robust algorithm for mining graphs. Given a query graph, this algorithm finds the supergraphs of that query graph from the graph database. gIndex maintains an index of graph database according to discriminative fragments. In this paper, a further improvement over the existing gIndex algorithm is proposed. More information is stored in the index data structure to quickly answer the graph query, discarding the unnecessary graphs. The proposed method in this paper handles sudden change in database graph patterns efficiently and is capable of processing queries in dynamic and evolving database which gIndex can not handle. It also ensures a good running time for processing graph queries.
