TreeSpan: Efficiently Computing Similarity All-Matching
Summary: TreeSpan uses a spanning-tree cover QT to span all q subgraphs within theta; exact matching on each tree yields similarity matches. Approach blends with filtering, sharing, and ordered search, yielding 7 orders-of-magnitude speedups over prior work.
