• Abstract: Spectral graph convolutional networks are generalizations of standard convolutional networks for graph-structured data using the Laplacian operator. A common misconception is the instability of spectral filters, i.e. the impossibility to transfer spectral filters between graphs of variable size and topology. This misbelief has limited the development of spectral networks for multi-graph tasks in favor of spatial graph networks. However, recent works have proved the stability of spectral filters under graph perturbation. Our work complements and emphasizes further the high quality of spectral transferability by benchmarking spectral graph networks on tasks involving graphs of different size and connectivity. Numerical experiments exhibit favorable performance on graph regression, graph classification, and node classification problems on two graph benchmarks. The implementation of our experiments is available on GitHub for reproducibility.

  Graph State Space Network (GrassNet) is a novel graph neural network with theoretical support that provides a simple yet effective scheme for designing arbitrary graph spectral filters. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first to employ SSMs for the design of graph GNN spectral filters. Extensive experiments on nine public benchmarks reveal that GrassNet achieves superior performance in real-world graph modeling tasks.

  Conventional wisdom dictates that spectral convolutional networks may only be deployed on undirected graphs. Here we show this traditional reliance on the graph Fourier transform to be superfluous. We provide a frequency-response interpretation of newly developed filters, investigate the influence of the basis used to express filters and discuss the interplay with characteristic operators on which networks are based.

  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.
