It has been observed that the smoothness functional on graphs can be defined in terms of the graph Laplacian. In this work, we explore the regularization properties of graph Laplacian and proposed a generalized framework for regularized filter designs in spectral GCNNs.

• Abstract: Graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) have been widely used in graph learning. It has been observed that the smoothness functional on graphs can be defined in terms of the graph Laplacian. This fact points out in the direction of using Laplacian in deriving regularization operators on graphs and its consequent use with spectral GCNN filter designs. In this work, we explore the regularization properties of graph Laplacian and proposed a generalized framework for regularized filter designs in spectral GCNNs. We found that the filters used in many state-of-the-art GCNNs can be derived as a special case of the framework we developed. We designed new filters that are associated with well-defined regularization behavior and tested their performance on semi-supervised node classification tasks. Their performance was found to be superior to that of the other state-of-the-art techniques.

  We study the relationship between a graph neural network (GNN) and a manifold neural network (MNN) when the graph is constructed from a set of points sampled from the manifold. We prove non-asymptotic error bounds showing that convolutional filters and neural networks on these graphs converge to convolutional filters and neural networks on the continuous manifold.
