• Abstract summary: We propose the Orientation-Aware Graph Neural Networks (OAGNNs) to better sense the geometric characteristics in protein structure. Extending a single weight from a scalar to a 3D vector, we construct a rich set of geometric-meaningful operations. Experiments have shown that our OAGNNs have a remarkable ability to sense geometric orientational features compared to classical networks.

• Abstract: By folding into particular 3D structures, proteins play a key role in living beings. To learn meaningful representation from a protein structure for downstream tasks, not only the global backbone topology but the local fine-grained orientational relations between amino acids should also be considered. In this work, we propose the Orientation-Aware Graph Neural Networks (OAGNNs) to better sense the geometric characteristics in protein structure (e.g. inner-residue torsion angles, inter-residue orientations). Extending a single weight from a scalar to a 3D vector, we construct a rich set of geometric-meaningful operations to process both the classical and SO(3) representations of a given structure. To plug our designed perceptron unit into existing Graph Neural Networks, we further introduce an equivariant message passing paradigm, showing superior versatility in maintaining SO(3)-equivariance at the global scale. Experiments have shown that our OAGNNs have a remarkable ability to sense geometric orientational features compared to classical networks. OAGNNs have also achieved state-of-the-art performance on various computational biology applications related to protein 3D structures.

Experimental results on two real datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of ELGN over several state-of-the-art baselines.

We observe a performance increase for molecular datasets, from 2.87% up to 64.14% when considering learnable PE for both GNN classes.
