Exact Subgraph Matching Algorithm (ESM) |
We have demonstrated the successful usage of our algorithm in three biomedical relation and event extraction applications: BioNLP 2011 shared tasks on event extraction, Protein-Residue association detection and Protein-Protein interaction identification.
This Java implementation implements our ESM algorithm. It addition to subgraph isomorphism, it also provides a function to determine graph isomorphism.
If you use our ESM implementation to support academic research, please cite the following paper:

Source code and resources pertaining to the ESM 1.0 release are available here
Java API documentation can be found at http://esmalgorithm.sourceforge.net/apidocs/
Version 1.0 of the ESM is available via a Maven repository. If you use Maven as your build tool, you can add the ESM as a dependency by adding the following to your pom.xml file:
<dependency> <groupId>edu.ucdenver.ccp</groupId> <artifactId>esm</artifactId> <version>1.0</version> </dependency> <repository> <id>bionlp-sourceforge</id> <url>http://svn.code.sf.net/p/bionlp/code/repo/</url> </repository>
