• Abstract: Current graph representation learning techniques use Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to extract features from dataset embeddings. In this work, we examine the quality of these embeddings and assess how changing them can affect the accuracy of GNNs. We explore different embedding extraction techniques for both images and texts. We find that the choice of embedding biases the performance of different GNN architectures and thus the choice of embedding influences the selection of GNNs regardless of the underlying dataset. In addition, we only see an improvement in accuracy from some GNN models compared to the accuracy of models trained from scratch or fine-tuned on the underlying data without utilizing the graph connections. As an alternative, we propose Graph-connected Network (GraNet) layers which use GNN message passing within large models to allow neighborhood aggregation. This gives a chance for the model to inherit weights from large pre-trained models if possible and we demonstrate that this approach improves the accuracy compared to the previous methods: on Flickr_v2, GraNet beats GAT2 and GraphSAGE by 7.7% and 1.7% respectively.

  The ubiquity of large-scale graphs in node-classification tasks hinders the real-world applications of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) This paper studies graph coresets for GNNs and avoids the interdependence issue by selecting ego-graphs based on their spectral embeddings. Our spectral greedy graph coreset (SGGC) scales to graphs with millions of nodes, obviates the need for model pre-training, and applies to low-homophily graphs.

  Graph neural networks (GNNs) have been widely used for representation learning on graph data. This paper introduces a context-surrounding GNN framework and proposes two smoothness metrics to measure the quantity and quality of information obtained from graph data. A new GNN model, called CS-GNN, is then designed to improve the use of graph information based on the smoothness values of a graph.

  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.
