Graphs are widely used to model data in many application domains. Thanks to the wide spread use of GPS-enabled devices, many applications assign a spatial attribute to graph vertices (e.g., geo-tagged social media). Users may issue a Reachability Query with Spatial Range Predicate (abbr. RangeReach). RangeReach finds whether an input vertex can reach any spatial vertex that lies within an input spatial range. An example of a RangeReach query is: Given a social graph, find whether Alice can reach any of the venues located within the geographical area of Arizona State University. The paper proposes GeoReach an approach that adds spatial data awareness to a graph database management system (GDBMS). GeoReach allows efficient execution of RangeReach queries, yet without compromising a lot on the overall system scalability (measured in terms of storage size and initialization/maintenance time). To achieve that, GeoReach is equipped with a light-weight data structure, namely SPA-Graph, that augments the underlying graph data with spatial indexing directories. When a RangeReach query is issued, the system employs a pruned-graph traversal approach. Experiments based on real system implementation inside Neo4j proves that GEOREACH exhibits up to two orders of magnitude better query response time and up to four times less storage than the state-of-the-art spatial and reachability indexing approaches.

A temporal graph is a graph in which vertices communicate with each other at specific time, e.g., $A$ calls $B$ at 11 a.m. and talks for 7 minutes, which is modeled by an edge from $A$ to $B$ with starting time 11 a.m. and duration 7 mins. Temporal g raphs can be used to model many networks with time-related activities, but efficient algorithms for analyzing temporal graphs are severely inadequate. We study fundamental problems such as answering reachability and time-based path queries in a temporal graph, and propose an efficient indexing technique specifically designed for processing these queries in a temporal graph. Our results show that our method is efficient and scalable in both index construction and query processing.
Researchers and industry analysts are increasingly interested in computing aggregation queries over large, unstructured datasets with selective predicates that are computed using expensive deep neural networks (DNNs). As these DNNs are expensive and because many applications can tolerate approximate answers, analysts are interested in accelerating these queries via approximations. Unfortunately, standard approximate query processing techniques to accelerate such queries are not applicable because they assume the result of the predicates are available ahead of time. Furthermore, recent work using cheap approximations (i.e., proxies) do not support aggregation queries with predicates. To accelerate aggregation queries with expensive predicates, we develop and analyze a query processing algorithm that leverages proxies (ABae). ABae must account for the key challenge that it may sample records that do not satisfy the predicate. To address this challenge, we first use the proxy to group records into strata so that records satisfying the predicate are ideally grouped into few strata. Given these strata, ABae uses pilot sampling and plugin estimates to sample according to the optimal allocation. We show that ABae converges at an optimal rate in a novel analysis of stratified sampling with draws that may not satisfy the predicate. We further show that ABae outperforms on baselines on six real-world datasets, reducing labeling costs by up to 2.3x.
Reachability query is a fundamental problem on graphs, which has been extensively studied in academia and industry. Since graphs are subject to frequent updates in many applications, it is essential to support efficient graph updates while offering g ood performance in reachability queries. Existing solutions compress the original graph with the Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) and propose efficient query processing and index update techniques. However, they focus on optimizing the scenarios where the Strong Connected Components(SCCs) remain unchanged and have overlooked the prohibitively high cost of the DAG maintenance when SCCs are updated. In this paper, we propose DBL, an efficient DAG-free index to support the reachability query on dynamic graphs with insertion-only updates. DBL builds on two complementary indexes: Dynamic Landmark (DL) label and Bidirectional Leaf (BL) label. The former leverages landmark nodes to quickly determine reachable pairs whereas the latter prunes unreachable pairs by indexing the leaf nodes in the graph. We evaluate DBL against the state-of-the-art approaches on dynamic reachability index with extensive experiments on real-world datasets. The results have demonstrated that DBL achieves orders of magnitude speedup in terms of index update, while still producing competitive query efficiency.
Mobile apps and location-based services generate large amounts of location data that can benefit research on traffic optimization, context-aware notifications and public health (e.g., spread of contagious diseases). To preserve individual privacy, on e must first sanitize location data, which is commonly done using the powerful differential privacy (DP) concept. However, existing solutions fall short of properly capturing density patterns and correlations that are intrinsic to spatial data, and as a result yield poor accuracy. We propose a machine-learning based approach for answering statistical queries on location data with DP guarantees. We focus on countering the main source of error that plagues existing approaches (namely, uniformity error), and we design a neural database system that models spatial datasets such that important density and correlation features present in the data are preserved, even when DP-compliant noise is added. We employ a set of neural networks that learn from diverse regions of the dataset and at varying granularities, leading to superior accuracy. We also devise a framework for effective system parameter tuning on top of public data, which helps practitioners set important system parameters without having to expend scarce privacy budget. Extensive experimental results on real datasets with heterogeneous characteristics show that our proposed approach significantly outperforms the state of the art.

In the real world a graph is often fragmented and distributed across different sites. This highlights the need for evaluating queries on distributed graphs. This paper proposes distributed evaluation algorithms for three classes of queries: reachabil ity for determining whether one node can reach another, bounded reachability for deciding whether there exists a path of a bounded length between a pair of nodes, and regular reachability for checking whether there exists a path connecting two nodes such that the node labels on the path form a string in a given regular expression. We develop these algorithms based on partial evaluation, to explore parallel computation. When evaluating a query Q on a distributed graph G, we show that these algorithms possess the following performance guarantees, no matter how G is fragmented and distributed: (1) each site is visited only once; (2) the total network traffic is determined by the size of Q and the fragmentation of G, independent of the size of G; and (3) the response time is decided by the largest fragment of G rather than the entire G. In addition, we show that these algorithms can be readily implemented in the MapReduce framework. Using synthetic and real-life data, we experimentally verify that these algorithms are scalable on large graphs, regardless of how the graphs are distributed.
