An effective keyword search co-occurrence multi-layer graph mining approach

Abstract

A combination of tools and methods known as "graph mining" is used to evaluate real-world graphs, forecast the potential effects of a given graph’s structure and properties for various applications, and build models that can yield actual graphs that closely resemble the structure seen in real-world graphs of interest. However, some graph mining approaches possess scalability and dynamic graph challenges, limiting practical applications. In machine learning and data mining, among the unique methods is graph embedding, known as network representation learning where representative methods suggest encoding the complicated graph structures into embedding by utilizing specific pre-defined metrics. Co-occurrence graphs and keyword searches are the foundation of search engine optimizations for diverse real-world applications. Current work on keyword searches on graphs is based on pre-established information retrieval search criteria and does not provide semantic linkages. Recent works on co-occurrence and keyword search methods function effectively on graphs with only one layer instead of many layers. However, the graph neural network has been utilized in recent years as a branch of graph model due to its excellent performance. This paper proposes an Effective Keyword Search Co-occurrence Multi-Layer Graph mining method by employing two core approaches: Multi-layer Graph Embedding and Graph Neural Networks. We conducted extensive tests using benchmarks on real-world data sets. Considering the experimental findings, the proposed method enhanced with the regularization approach is substantially excellent, with a 10% increment in precision, recall, and f1-score.
