Estimating Biclique Counts with Accuracy Guarantees
Summary: First approximation algorithm for (p,q)-biclique counting with formal error and failure-probability guarantees, using an edge-oriented sampling framework (BC-Shadow) that refines the sample space to increase biclique density and cut sample complexity. Introduces zstar, a one-to-one sampling structure, and an adaptive sampling rule; provides provable accuracy/runtime bounds and scalable empirical validation on large real graphs.
