Interactive Graph Search for Multiple Targets on DAGs

Summary: Tackles multiple-target interactive graph search on DAGs via "uncertain candidates" and a gain function to select queries, yielding a unified k‑EIS framework for single/multiple targets. Proves worst‑case queries drop from O(n) to O(log^2 n) and empirically outperforms four IGS baselines. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
