Abstract
We describe in this chapter graph query specification techniques to help users formulate path queries from examples provided as input or via graph exploration. This problem amounts to learning queries from examples and reverse-engineering queries starting from examples that users want or do not want. The complexity of these problems has been studied in-depth and practical implementations have appeared already to witness an increasing interest of the community toward these approaches.
