• Authors: Yunsheng Bai, Derek Xu, Yizhou Sun, Wei Wang
• Abstract summary: We propose GLSearch, a Graph Neural Network (GNN) based learning to search model. Our model is built upon the branch and bound bound, which selects one pair of nodes from the two input graphs to expand at a time. Our GLSearch can be potentially extended to solve many other problems with constraints on graphs.

• Abstract: Detecting the Maximum Common Subgraph (MCS) between two input graphs is fundamental for applications in drug synthesis, malware detection, cloud computing, etc. However, MCS computation is NP-hard, and state-of-the-art MCS solvers rely on heuristic search algorithms which in practice cannot find good solution for large graph pairs given a limited computation budget. We propose GLSearch, a Graph Neural Network (GNN) based learning to search model. Our model is built upon the branch and bound algorithm, which selects one pair of nodes from the two input graphs to expand at a time. Instead of using heuristics, we propose a novel GNN-based Deep Q-Network (DQN) to select the node pair, allowing the search process faster and more adaptive. To further enhance the training of DQN, we leverage the search process to provide supervision in a pre-training stage and guide our agent during an imitation learning stage. Experiments on synthetic and real-world large graph pairs demonstrate that our model learns a search strategy that is able to detect significantly larger common subgraphs given the same computation budget. Our GLSearch can be potentially extended to solve many other combinatorial problems with constraints on graphs.

We propose a novel and efficient search algorithm to make the total search cost on a par with training a single GNN once.

  Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved great success in graph representation learning. GNNs generate identical representations for graph substructures that may in fact be very different. More powerful GNNs, proposed recently by mimicking higher-order tests, are inefficient as they cannot sparsity of underlying graph structure. We propose Distance Depiction (DE) as a new class of graph representation learning.

  Graph representation learning has achieved a remarkable success in many graph-based applications, such as node classification, prediction, and community detection.

In this paper, we propose to attack the graph ordering problem behind such applications by a novel learning approach.
