Fractal: A General-Purpose Graph Pattern Mining System
Summary: Fractal is a general-purpose distributed graph pattern mining system with auto-tuned, locality-aware load balancing via hierarchical work stealing. It uses a depth-first, from-scratch subgraph enumeration to reduce intermediate state and memory, plus a modular API for expressive GPM; it outperforms baselines on multiple workloads.
