Graph mining refers to extracting knowledge from massive graphs. The data sets of telephone calls we see at AT&T can be viewed as a single graph, with several hundred million phone numbers as nodes, and calls between phone numbers as edges. It is a giant social network, like an internet connections graph or a rich citation network.
