• Title: GraphOpt: Learning Optimization Models of Graph Formation
• Authors: Rakshit Trivedi, Jiachen Yang, Hongyuan Zha
• Abstract summary: We propose an end-to-end framework that learns an implicit model of graph structure formation and discovers an underlying optimization mechanism. The learned objective can serve as an explanation for the observed graph properties, thereby lending itself to transfer across different graphs within a domain. GraphOpt poses link formation in graphs as a sequential decision-making process and solves it using maximum entropy inverse reinforcement learning algorithm.

• Abstract: Formation mechanisms are fundamental to the study of complex networks, but learning them from observations is challenging. In real-world domains, one often has access only to the final constructed graph, instead of the full construction process, and observed graphs exhibit complex structural properties. In this work, we propose GraphOpt, an end-to-end framework that jointly learns an implicit model of graph structure formation and discovers an underlying optimization mechanism in the form of a latent objective function. The learned objective can serve as an explanation for the observed graph properties, thereby lending itself to transfer across different graphs within a domain. GraphOpt poses link formation in graphs as a sequential decision-making process and solves it using maximum entropy inverse reinforcement learning algorithm. Further, it employs a novel continuous latent action space that aids scalability. Empirically, we demonstrate that GraphOpt discovers a latent objective transferable across graphs with different characteristics. GraphOpt also learns a robust stochastic policy that achieves competitive link prediction performance without being explicitly trained on this task and further enables construction of graphs with properties similar to those of the observed graph.

  We propose a novel approach, Motif-consistent Counterfactuals with Adversarial Refinement (MotifCAR) for graph-level anomaly detection. The model combines the motif of one graph, the core subgraph containing the identification (category) information, and the contextual subgraph of another graph to produce a raw counterfactual graph. MotifCAR can generate high-quality counterfactual graphs.

  Contrastive learning has emerged as a premier method for learning representations with or without supervision. Recent studies have shown its utility in graph representation learning for pre-training. We propose a set of well-motivated graph transformation operations to provide a bank of candidates when constructing augmentations for a graph contrastive objective.

  Graph-level learning has been applied to many tasks including comparison, regression, classification, and more. Traditional approaches to learning a set of graphs rely on hand-crafted features, such as substructures. Deep learning has helped graph-level learning adapt to the growing scale of graphs by extracting features automatically and encoding graphs into low-dimensional representations.

• Learning Graph Structure from Convolutional Mixtures [119.45320143101381]
  We propose a graph convolutional relationship between the observed and latent graphs, and formulate the graph learning task as a network inverse (deconvolution) problem. In lieu of eigendecomposition-based spectral methods, we unroll and truncate proximal gradient iterations to arrive at a parameterized neural network architecture that we call a Graph Deconvolution Network (GDN) GDNs can learn a distribution of graphs in a supervised fashion, perform link prediction or edge-weight regression tasks by adapting the loss function, and they are inherently inductive.

We use graph signals as functions in the reproducing kernel Hilbert space associated with a Kronecker product kernel. We develop a novel graph-based regularisation method which, when combined with the Kronecker product kernel, enables our model to capture both the dependency explained by the graph and the dependency due to graph signals.
