• Abstract summary: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are widely used on a variety of graph-based machine learning tasks. For node-level tasks, GNNs have strong power to model the homophily property of graphs. We propose a novel GNN model based on a bi- kernel feature transformation and a selection gate.

• Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are widely used on a variety of graph-based machine learning tasks. For node-level tasks, GNNs have strong power to model the homophily property of graphs (i.e., connected nodes are more similar) while their ability to capture heterophily property is often doubtful. This is partially caused by the design of the feature transformation with the same kernel for the nodes in the same hop and the followed aggregation operator. One kernel cannot model the similarity and the dissimilarity (i.e., the positive and negative correlation) between node features simultaneously even though we use attention mechanisms like Graph Attention Network (GAT), since the weight calculated by attention is always a positive value. In this paper, we propose a novel GNN model based on a bi-kernel feature transformation and a selection gate. Two kernels capture homophily and heterophily information respectively, and the gate is introduced to select which kernel we should use for the given node pairs. We conduct extensive experiments on various datasets with different homophily-heterophily properties. The experimental results show consistent and significant improvements against state-of-the-art GNN methods.

• Transfer Entropy in Graph Convolutional Neural Networks [0.0]
  Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN) are Graph Neural Networks where the convolutions are applied over a graph. In this study, we address two important challenges related to GCNs: i. Oversmoothing is the degradation of the discriminative capacity of nodes as a result of repeated aggregations. We propose a new strategy for addressing these challenges in GCNs based on Transfer Entropy (TE), which measures of the amount of directed transfer of information between two time varying nodes.

  Homophily and heterophily are intrinsic properties of graphs that describe whether two linked nodes share similar properties. This work identifies three graph features, including the ego node feature, the aggregated node feature, and the graph structure feature, that are essential for graph representation learning. It proposes a new GNN model called OGNN that extracts all three graph features and adaptively fuses them to achieve generalizability across the whole spectrum of homophily.

We develop a model that adaptively learns the directionality of the graph, and exploits the underlying long-distance correlations between nodes.

  Graph neural networks (GNNs) are emerging machine learning models on graphs. Permutation-equivariance and proximity-awareness are two important properties highly desirable for GNNs. We show that existing GNNs, mostly based on the message-passing mechanism, cannot simultaneously preserve the two properties. In order to preserve node proximities, we augment the existing GNNs with node representations.
