First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for enumerating at least one maximal clique, comprising the steps of:
- obtaining data, wherein the data comprises a graph;
obtaining a user-specified minimum size restriction on at least one maximal clique of interest;
filtering the data using the user-specified minimum size restriction to reduce graph size; and
enumerating at least one maximal clique from the graph provided that at least one maximal clique exists above the user-specified minimum size restriction.

Abstract
Techniques for enumerating at least one maximal clique are provided. The techniques include obtaining data, wherein the data comprises a graph, obtaining a user-specified minimum size restriction on at least one maximal clique of interest, filtering the data using the user-specified minimum size restriction to reduce graph size, and enumerating at least one maximal clique from the graph provided that at least one maximal clique exists above the user-specified minimum size restriction.
