Abstract

The objective of graph classification is to classify graphs of similar structures into the same class. This problem is of key importance in areas such as cheminformatics and bioinformatics. Support Vector Machines can efficiently classify graphs if graph kernels are used instead of feature vectors. In this paper, we propose two novel and efficient graph kernels called Mapping Distance Kernel with Stars (MDKS) and Mapping Distance Kernel with Vectors (MDKV). MDKS approximately measures the graph edit distance using star structures of height one. The method runs in $O(\upsilon^3)$, where $\upsilon$ is the maximum number of vertices in the graphs. However, when the height of the star structures is increased to avoid structural information loss, this graph kernel is no longer efficient. Hence, MDKV represents star structures of height greater than one as vectors and sums their Euclidean distances. It runs in $O(h(\upsilon^3 +|\Sigma|\upsilon^2))$, where $\Sigma$ is a set of vertex labels and graphs are iteratively relabeled $h$ times. We verify the computational efficiency of the proposed graph kernels on artificially generated datasets. Further, results on three real-world datasets show that the classification accuracy of the proposed graph kernels is higher than three conventional graph kernel methods.
