DiscoPG: Property Graph Schema Discovery and Exploration
Summary: DiscoPG discovers property graph schemas via clustering with Gaussian Mixture Models on labels/properties. First system for property-graph schema discovery; supports static/dynamic graphs, dashboards for evolving schemas and clustering quality. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
