The paper presents Subgraph Pattern Miner (SPMiner), a novel neural approach for finding frequent subgraphs in large target graphs. SPMiner combines graph neural networks, order embedding space, and an efficient search strategy to identify network subgraph patterns that appear most frequently in the target graph. The approach first decomposes the target graph into many overlapping subgraphs and then encodes each subgraph into an order embedding space. Next, SPMiner uses a monotonic walk in the order embedding space to identify frequent motifs. Compared to existing approaches, SPMiner is more accurate, faster, and more scalable. It can accurately identify most frequent 5- and 6-node motifs while being 100x faster than exact enumeration methods. Additionally, SPMiner can reliably identify frequent 10-node motifs, which is beyond the size limit of exact enumeration approaches.

Imagine trying to find patterns in a big network with many nodes and edges. Identifying these patterns, called “network motifs,” helps us understand how the network works. But finding these patterns can be very hard because there are so many possible combinations. A new approach called Subgraph Pattern Miner (SPMiner) makes it easier by breaking down the big network into smaller parts and then searching for patterns in those parts. SPMiner is faster, more accurate, and better than other methods at finding patterns in big networks.
