• Abstract summary: We propose IIE-GNN (Intra-class Information Enhanced Graph Neural Networks) to achieve two improvements. A unified framework is proposed based on the literature, in which the intra-class information from the node itself and neighbors can be extracted. We also conduct experiments to show that IIE-GNN can improve the model performance by designing node-wise GNNs to enhance intra-class information extraction.

• Abstract: In recent years, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have been popular in graph representation learning which assumes the homophily property, i.e., the connected nodes have the same label or have similar features. However, they may fail to generalize into the heterophilous graphs which in the low/medium level of homophily. Existing methods tend to address this problem by enhancing the intra-class information extraction, i.e., either by designing better GNNs to improve the model effectiveness, or re-designing the graph structures to incorporate more potential intra-class nodes from distant hops. Despite the success, we observe two aspects that can be further improved: (a) enhancing the ego feature information extraction from node itself which is more reliable in extracting the intra-class information; (b) designing node-wise GNNs can better adapt to the nodes with different homophily ratios. In this paper, we propose a novel method IIE-GNN (Intra-class Information Enhanced Graph Neural Networks) to achieve two improvements. A unified framework is proposed based on the literature, in which the intra-class information from the node itself and neighbors can be extracted based on seven carefully designed blocks. With the help of neural architecture search (NAS), we propose a novel search space based on the framework, and then provide an architecture predictor to design GNNs for each node. We further conduct experiments to show that IIE-GNN can improve the model performance by designing node-wise GNNs to enhance intra-class information extraction.

  Heterophily, nodes with different labels tend to be connected based on semantic meanings, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) often exhibit suboptimal performance. We propose and demonstrate that the valuable semantic information inherent in heterophily can be utilized effectively in graph learning. We propose HiGNN, an innovative approach that constructs an additional new graph structure, that integrates heterophilous information by leveraging node distribution.

We introduce Positional nodes (PE) of nodes, and inject it into the input layer, like in Transformers. We observe a performance increase for molecular datasets, from 2.87% up to 64.14% when considering learnable PE for both GNN classes.

In addition, we propose to incorporate non-local information for feature learning in an adaptive manner based on the attention scores.
