Keyword Search in Graphs: Finding r-cliques
Summary: Defines r-cliques for keyword search: nodes covering all keywords with distance ≤ r, yielding tighter results than trees. Offers exact r-clique enumeration and a polynomial-delay 2-approximation; experiments on two real datasets show efficiency. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
