Abstract

In this paper we propose PATCOMP—a PARTICIA-based novel approach for Network motif search. The algorithm takes advantage of compression and speed of PATRICIA data structure to store the collection of subgraphs in memory and search for classification and census of network. Paper also describes the structure of PATRICIA nodes and how data structure is developed for using it for counting of subgraphs. The main benefit of this approach is significant reduction in memory space requirement particularly for larger network motifs with acceptable time performance. To assess the effectiveness of PATRICIA-based approach we compared the performance (memory and time) of this proposed approach with QuateXelero. The experiments with different networks like ecoli and yeast validate the advantage of PATRICIA-based approach in terms of reduction in memory usage by 4.4–20% for E. coli and 5.8–23.2% for yeast networks.
