algorithm to check whether a given graph is subgraph of another graph [closed]
i assume that we have 2 labeled graphs G and T and the algorithm determine if G a subgraph of T and the corresponding vertices in the main graphT and the subgraph G should have same label
That problem is called "subgraph isomorphism" and it is NP-complete (and so likely to be hard). Do you need a general solution for this, or just for a particular graph G
? The second case is much easier. There is some general information about algorithms here. There is a version of one of the algorithms (actually, for a more general problem) in the Boost Graph Library (see documentation here).
A general answer for a general question: the problem you want to solve is known as 'subgraph isomorphism.' Have a look here for further references: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subgraph_isomorphism_problem .
