Graph Reconstruction via Distance Oracles
arXiv:1304.6588
Abstract
We study the problem of reconstructing a hidden graph given access to a distance oracle. We design randomized algorithms for the following problems: reconstruction of a degree bounded graph with query complexity $\tilde{O}(n^{3/2})$; reconstruction of a degree bounded outerplanar graph with query complexity $\tilde{O}(n)$; and near-optimal approximate reconstruction of a general graph.
