• Abstract: In the modern age of social media and networks, graph representations of real-world phenomena have become an incredibly useful source to mine insights. Often, we are interested in understanding how entities in a graph are interconnected. The Graph Neural Network (GNN) has proven to be a very useful tool in a variety of graph learning tasks including node classification, link prediction, and edge classification. However, in most of these tasks, the graph data we are working with may be noisy and may contain spurious edges. That is, there is a lot of uncertainty associated with the underlying graph structure. Recent approaches to modeling uncertainty have been to use a Bayesian framework and view the graph as a random variable with probabilities associated with model parameters. Introducing the Bayesian paradigm to graph-based models, specifically for semi-supervised node classification, has been shown to yield higher classification accuracies. However, the method of graph inference proposed in recent work does not take into account the structure of the graph. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm called Bayesian Graph Convolutional Network using Neighborhood Random Walk Sampling (BGCN-NRWS), which uses a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) based graph sampling algorithm utilizing graph structure, reduces overfitting by using a variational inference layer, and yields consistently competitive classification results compared to the state-of-the-art in semi-supervised node classification.

  Graph neural networks (GNNs) are a popular class of parametric model for learning over graph-structured data. Recent work has argued that GNNs primarily use the graph for feature smoothing, and have shown competitive results on benchmark tasks. In this work, we ask whether these results can be extended to heterogeneous graphs, which encode multiple types of relationship between different entities.

• Line Graph Neural Networks for Link Prediction [71.00689542259052]
  We consider the graph link prediction task, which is a classic graph analytical problem with many real-world applications. In this formalism, a link prediction problem is converted to a graph classification task. We propose to seek a radically different and novel path by making use of the line graphs in graph theory. In particular, each node in a line graph corresponds to a unique edge in the original graph. Therefore, link prediction problems in the original graph can be equivalently solved as a node classification problem in its corresponding line graph, instead of a graph classification task.
