Abstract
Pattern matching is a powerful graph analysis tool. Unfortunately, existing solutions have limited scalability, support only a limited set of search patterns, and/or focus on only a subset of the real-world problems associated with pattern matching. This paper presents a new algorithmic pipeline that: (i) enables highly scalable pattern matching on labeled graphs, (ii) supports arbitrary patterns, (iii) enables trade-offs between precision and time-to-solution (while always selecting all vertices and edges that participate in matches, thus offering 100% recall), and (iv) supports a set of popular data analytics scenarios. We implement our approach on top of HavoqGT and demonstrate its advantages through strong and weak scaling experiments on massive-scale real-world (up to 257 billion edges) and synthetic (up to 4.4 trillion edges) graphs, respectively, and at scales (1,024 nodes / 36,864 cores) orders of magnitude larger than used in the past for similar problems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
