Background
Recently, Enumeration algorithms are interesting
・ There are still many unsolved nice problems
(unlike to ordinal discrete algorithms)
・ Recent increase of computer power makes
many enumeration problems practically solvable
many applications have been appearing,
such as, genome, data mining, clustering, so on
・ Some (theoretical) algorithms use enumeration as subroutines
(recognition of perfect graph)
Background (cont.)
・ My institute has 100 researchers of informatics
・ At least 5 researchers (independently) use implementations of
enumeration algorithms
・ Suppose that there are 100,000 researchers of informatics
in the world
5000 researchers use enumeration algorithms ?????
Problems and Results
Problem1 : for a given graph G=(V, E),
enumerate all maximal cliques in G
Problem2 : for a given bipartite graph G=(V1∪V2, E),
enumerate all maximal bipartite cliques in G
( Problem2 is a special case of Problem1 )
・ We propose algorithms for solving these problems,
reduce the time complexity in dense cases and sparse cases.
・ Computational experiments for random graphs and real-world data
Difficulty
・ Consider branch-and-bound type enumeration:
divide maximal cliques into two groups
maximal cliques including v / not including v
・ If a group includes no maximal clique, cut off the branch
Finding a maximal clique not including given vertices of S
is NP-Complete
Can not cut off subproblems(branches)
including no maximal clique
v1∈K
v2∈K
v2∈K
v1∈K
Existing Studies and Ours
O(|V||E|): Tsukiyama, Ide, Ariyoshi & Shirakawa,
O(|V||E|), lexicographic order: Johnson, Yanakakis & Papadimitriou
O(a(G)|E|): Chiba & Nishizeki
( a(G): arboricity of G with m/(n-1) ≦ a(G) ≦m1/2 )
・ many heuristic algorithms in data mining, for bipartite case
Ours:
O(|V|2.376) (dense case)
O(Δ4) (sparse case)
O((Δ*)4 + θ3 ) (θ vertices have degree > Δ* )
O(Δ3) (bipartite case)
O(Δ2) (bipartite case with using much memory)
Enumeration of Maximal Cliques
・ Improved version of algorithm of Tsukiyama et. al.
Idea: Construct a route on all maximal cliques to be traversed
・ For a maximal clique K of G = ( V, E ) :
C (K) : lexicographically maximum maximal clique including K
K≦i : vertices of K with indices ≦ i
i(K) : minimum index s.t. C(K≦i) = C(K≦i+1)
parent of a maximal clique K : C(K≦i(K)-1)
・ parent is lexicographically larger than K

Graph Representation of Relation
・ Parent-child relation is acyclic
graph representation forms a tree (enumeration tree)
Visit all maximal cliques by depth-first search
・ need to find children of a maximal clique
Child of Maximal Clique
Γ(vi) : vertices adjacent to vi
K[i] = C ( K≦i ∩ Γ(vi) ∪ {vi} )
・ H is a child of K only if H = K[i] for some i>i(K)
(H is a child of K if the parent of K[i] is K )
・ i(K[i]) = i
K,i(K)=6

Characterization of Child
The parent of K[i] = K ⇔
(1) no vj , j<i is adjacent to all vertices in K≦i ∩Γ(vi) ∪ {vi}
(2) no vj , j<i is adjacent to all vertices in K≦i∩Γ(vi) ∪ K≦j
(1) is not satisfied ⇔ K[i] and parent of K[i] includes vj∈K
(2) is not satisfied ⇔ parent of K[i] includes vj∈K

Use of Matrix Multiplication
・ Check the conditions (1) and (2) by matrix multiplication
(1) no vj , j<i is adjacent to all vertices in K ≦i ∩Γ(vi) ∪ {vi}
ith row of left
⇒ K≦i∩Γ(vi)∪{vi}
= |K≦i∩Γ(vi)∪{vi}| ?
jth column of right ⇒
Γ(vj)
ij cell of product ⇒ | K≦i∩Γ(vi)∪{vi} ∩ Γ(vj) |
Γ(vj) ∩
K ≦i ∩Γ(vi) ∪ {vi}
K≦i∩Γ(vi)∪{vi}
Γ(vj)
Condition (2) can be checked in the same way
Checked in O( |V|2.368 ) time ⇒ time complexity is O( |V|2.368 ) for each
Sparse Cases
・ If vi is adjacent to no vertex in K
K[i] = C ( K≦i ∩ Γ(vi) ∪ {vi} ) = C ({vi})
parent of K[i] = C ( C ({vi}) ≦i )
If C ({vi}) ≦i =φ, parent of K[i] is K0
If C ({vi}) ≦i ≠φ, (1) is not satisfied
If K ≠ K0, K[i] is not a child of K
Δ: max. degree
・ Since |K|≦Δ+1 , at most Δ(Δ+1) vertices are adjacent to K
・ Each K[i] takes O(Δ2) time to construct the parent
O(Δ4 )
per maximal clique
O((Δ*)4 + |Θ|3 ) if partially dense
Δ*: max. degree in V\Θ
Bipartite Clique
・ Enumerate maximal bipartite cliques in G =(V1 ∪V2 ,E )
( = maximal cliques in G’ = (V1 ∪V2 , E ∪V1 ×V1 ∪V2×V2 ))
enumerated in O( |V|2.368 ) time for each
・ But a sparse bipartite graph will be dense
need some improvements for sparse cases

Fast Construction of K[i]
・ For any maximal bipartite clique K
K ∩V2 = ∩v∈K ∩V1 Γ(v)
K ∩V1 = ∩v∈K ∩V2 Γ(v)
K[v1]
・ K[i]∩V1 for all i are computed in O(Δ2) time
・ K[i] for all i are computed in O(Δ3) time

Results
Conclusion and Future Work
・ Proposed fast algorithms for enumerating
maximal cliques: O(|V|2.376), O(Δ4 ), O((Δ*)4 + θ3 )
maximal bipartite cliques: O(|V|2.376), O(Δ3 ), O(Δ2)
・ Examined benchmark problems of data mining,
and showed that our algorithm performs well.
Future work:
・ Can we improve more? What is the difficulty ?
・ Can we enumerate other maximal (minimal) graph objects ?
・ Can we apply matrix multiplication to other enumeration
problems ?
・ What can be enumerated efficiently in practice ?
Frequent Sets
Input graph:
An item and a customer is connected
iff the customer purchased the item
customer1
beer
customer2
nappy
customer3
milk
customer4
In a maximal bipartite clique:
Customers: have similar favorites
Items:
frequently purchased together
[Agrawal et al. 96, Zaki et al. 02, Pei 00, Han 00, … ]
Few Large Degree Vertices
・ Very few vertices (denoted by Θ) have large degrees
small degree < Δ’
・ Divide the maximal cliques into two groups:
(a) cliques not included in Θ
(b) cliques included in Θ
・ (a) can be enumerated in O(Δ’4) time
・ Maximal clique K in the induced graph by Θ is
a maximal clique of G ⇔ K is not included in any of (a)
O(|Θ|3) time for each
O(Δ’4 + |Θ|3 ) per maximal clique

Avoid Duplications by Using Memory
・We can avoid duplications by storing all maximal bipartite cliques
・ From K ∩V1 =Γ(K ∩V2) , we store all K ∩V1
1. Get a K from memory (which is un-operated)
2. generate all K[i]∩V1
3. Store each K[i]∩V1 if it is not in memory
4. Go to 1 if a maximal clique is un-operated
