• Title: Graph Neural Networks with Parallel Neighborhood Aggregations for Graph Classification
• Authors: Siddhant Doshi and Sundeep Prabhakar Chepuri
• Abstract summary: We focus on graph classification using a graph neural network (GNN) model that precomputes the node features using a bank of neighborhood aggregation graph operators arranged in parallel. These GNN models have a natural advantage of reduced training and inference time due to the precomputations. We demonstrate via numerical experiments that the developed model achieves state-of-the-art performance on many diverse real-world datasets.

• Abstract: We focus on graph classification using a graph neural network (GNN) model that precomputes the node features using a bank of neighborhood aggregation graph operators arranged in parallel. These GNN models have a natural advantage of reduced training and inference time due to the precomputations but are also fundamentally different from popular GNN variants that update node features through a sequential neighborhood aggregation procedure during training. We provide theoretical conditions under which a generic GNN model with parallel neighborhood aggregations (PA-GNNs, in short) are provably as powerful as the well-known Weisfeiler-Lehman (WL) graph isomorphism test in discriminating non-isomorphic graphs. Although PA-GNN models do not have an apparent relationship with the WL test, we show that the graph embeddings obtained from these two methods are injectively related. We then propose a specialized PA-GNN model, called SPIN, which obeys the developed conditions. We demonstrate via numerical experiments that the developed model achieves state-of-the-art performance on many diverse real-world datasets while maintaining the discriminative power of the WL test and the computational advantage of preprocessing graphs before the training process.

  Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown great promise in modeling relationships between nodes in a graph. Previous studies have primarily attempted to utilize the information from higher-order neighbors in the graph. We make a fundamental observation: the regular and the Hadamard power of the Laplacian matrix behave similarly in the spectrum. We propose a novel graph convolutional operator based on the sparse Sobolev norm of graph signals.

We propose a two-stage GNN model evaluation framework, including (1) DiscGraph set construction and (2) GNNEvaluator training and inference. Under the effective training supervision from the DiscGraph set, GNNEvaluator learns to precisely estimate node classification accuracy of the to-be-evaluated GNN model.

We introduce this inductive bias into GPs to improve their predictive performance for graph-structured data. We show that these graph-based kernels lead to competitive classification and regression performance, as well as advantages in time, compared with the respective GNNs.

  Graph neural networks (GNNs) are effective models for representation learning on relational data. Standard GNNs are limited in their expressive power, as they cannot distinguish beyond the capability of the Weisfeiler-Leman graph isomorphism. In this work, we analyze the expressive power of GNNs with random node (RNI) We prove that these models are universal, a first such result for GNNs not relying on computationally demanding higher-order properties.
