摘要：
Graphs are widely used modeling tools that capture objects and their relation (links). Graph modeled data are found in diverse application areas including bioinformatics, cheminformatics, social networks among many others. In this talk we will present our recent work on graph kernel functions and graph similarity search in the context of big data, focusing on scalable algorithmic approaches for graph data. Applications of graph modeling techniques in bio and health informatics will be touched at the end.
