Abstract

Given a family of graphs F\mathcal{F}, we prove that the normalized edit distance of any given graph Γ\Gamma to being induced F\mathcal{F}-free is estimable with a query complexity that depends only on the bounds of the Frieze--Kannan Regularity Lemma and on a Removal Lemma for F\mathcal{F}.
