• Abstract summary: We introduce a novel graph convolutional network (GCN) that explicitly disentangles intertwined relations encoded in a graph. FactorGCN takes a simple graph as input, and disentangles it into several factorized graphs. We evaluate the proposed FactorGCN both qualitatively and quantitatively on the synthetic and real-world datasets.

• Abstract: Graphs have been widely adopted to denote structural connections between entities. The relations are in many cases heterogeneous, but entangled together and denoted merely as a single edge between a pair of nodes. For example, in a social network graph, users in different latent relationships like friends and colleagues, are usually connected via a bare edge that conceals such intrinsic connections. In this paper, we introduce a novel graph convolutional network (GCN), termed as factorizable graph convolutional network(FactorGCN), that explicitly disentangles such intertwined relations encoded in a graph. FactorGCN takes a simple graph as input, and disentangles it into several factorized graphs, each of which represents a latent and disentangled relation among nodes. The features of the nodes are then aggregated separately in each factorized latent space to produce disentangled features, which further leads to better performances for downstream tasks. We evaluate the proposed FactorGCN both qualitatively and quantitatively on the synthetic and real-world datasets, and demonstrate that it yields truly encouraging results in terms of both disentangling and feature aggregation.

• Metric-Semantic Factor Graph Generation based on Graph Neural Networks [0.0]
  In indoors, certain spatial constraints, such as the relative positioning of planes, remain consistent despite variations in layout. This paper explores how these invariant relationships can be captured in a graph SLAM framework by representing high-level concepts like rooms and walls. Several efforts have tackled this issue with add-hoc solutions for each concept generation and with manually-defined factors. This paper proposes a novel method for metric-semantic factor graph generation which includes defining a semantic scene graph, integrating geometric information, and learning the interconnecting factors.

  We present a rigorous theoretical understanding of the effects of graph convolutions in multi-layer networks. We show that a single graph convolution expands the regime of the distance between the means where multi-layer networks can classify the data. We provide both theoretical and empirical insights into the performance of graph convolutions placed in different combinations among the layers of a network.
