BICE: Exploring Compact Search Space by Using Bipartite Matching and Cell-Wide Verification
Summary: BICE compresses the subgraph-search space by combining bipartite-matching pruning, failing-sets augmented with bipartite matching, and a novel cell-wide verification to avoid unnecessary candidate expansions. Combined algorithm yields up to ~100× speedups versus state-of-the-art baselines.
