• Abstract: Random graph models are playing an increasingly important role in various fields ranging from social networks, telecommunication systems, to physiologic and biological networks. Within this landscape, the random Kronecker graph model, emerges as a prominent framework for scrutinizing intricate real-world networks. In this paper, we investigate large random Kronecker graphs, i.e., the number of graph vertices $N$ is large. Built upon recent advances in random matrix theory (RMT) and high-dimensional statistics, we prove that the adjacency of a large random Kronecker graph can be decomposed, in a spectral norm sense, into two parts: a small-rank (of rank $O(\log N)$) signal matrix that is linear in the graph parameters and a zero-mean random noise matrix. Based on this result, we propose a ``denoise-and-solve'' approach to infer the key graph parameters, with significantly reduced computational complexity. Experiments on both graph inference and classification are presented to evaluate the our proposed method. In both tasks, the proposed approach yields comparable or advantageous performance, than widely-used graph inference (e.g., KronFit) and graph neural net baselines, at a time cost that scales linearly as the graph size $N$.

  We study the generalization capabilities of geometric graph neural networks (GNNs) We prove a generalization gap between the optimal empirical risk and the optimal statistical risk of this GNN. The most important observation is that the generalization capability can be realized with one large graph instead of being limited to the size of the graph as in previous results.
