• Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have become increasingly popular and achieved impressive results in many graph-based applications. However, extensive manual work and domain knowledge are required to design effective architectures, and the results of GNN models have high variance with different training setups, which limits the application of existing GNN models. In this paper, we present AutoHEnsGNN, a framework to build effective and robust models for graph tasks without any human intervention. AutoHEnsGNN won first place in the AutoGraph Challenge for KDD Cup 2020, and achieved the best rank score of five real-life datasets in the final phase. Given a task, AutoHEnsGNN first applies a fast proxy evaluation to automatically select a pool of promising GNN models. Then it builds a hierarchical ensemble framework: 1) We propose graph self-ensemble (GSE), which can reduce the variance of weight initialization and efficiently exploit the information of local and global neighborhoods; 2) Based on GSE, a weighted ensemble of different types of GNN models is used to effectively learn more discriminative node representations. To efficiently search the architectures and ensemble weights, we propose AutoHEnsGNN$_{\text{Gradient}}$, which treats the architectures and ensemble weights as architecture parameters and uses gradient-based architecture search to obtain optimal configurations, and AutoHEnsGNN$_{\text{Adaptive}}$, which can adaptively adjust the ensemble weight based on the model accuracy. Extensive experiments on node classification, graph classification, edge prediction and KDD Cup challenge demonstrate the effectiveness and generality of AutoHEnsGNN

  We study a new problem, GNN model evaluation, that aims to assess the performance of a specific GNN model trained on labeled and observed graphs. 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.

  Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved great success in graph representation learning. GNNs generate identical representations for graph substructures that may in fact be very different. More powerful GNNs, proposed recently by mimicking higher-order tests, are inefficient as they cannot sparsity of underlying graph structure. We propose Distance Depiction (DE) as a new class of graph representation learning.
