• Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are state-of-the-art models for performing prediction tasks on graphs. While existing GNNs have shown great performance on various tasks related to graphs, little attention has been paid to the scenario where out-of-distribution (OOD) nodes exist in the graph during training and inference. Borrowing the concept from CV and NLP, we define OOD nodes as nodes with labels unseen from the training set. Since a lot of networks are automatically constructed by programs, real-world graphs are often noisy and may contain nodes from unknown distributions. In this work, we define the problem of graph learning with out-of-distribution nodes. Specifically, we aim to accomplish two tasks: 1) detect nodes which do not belong to the known distribution and 2) classify the remaining nodes to be one of the known classes. We demonstrate that the connection patterns in graphs are informative for outlier detection, and propose Out-of-Distribution Graph Attention Network (OODGAT), a novel GNN model which explicitly models the interaction between different kinds of nodes and separate inliers from outliers during feature propagation. Extensive experiments show that OODGAT outperforms existing outlier detection methods by a large margin, while being better or comparable in terms of in-distribution classification.

  Graph neural networks (GNNs) have found widespread application in modeling graph data across diverse domains. Recent studies have explored graph OOD detection, often focusing on training a specific model or modifying the data on top of a well-trained GNN. This paper introduces a data-centric, unsupervised, and plug-and-play solution that operates independently of training data and modifications of GNN architecture.

  We propose a novel semi-supervised method for graphs, GraFN, to ensure nodes that belong to the same class to be grouped together. GraFN randomly samples support nodes from labeled nodes and anchor nodes from the entire graph. We experimentally show that GraFN surpasses both the semi-supervised and self-supervised methods in terms of node classification on real-world graphs.

  Graph neural networks (GNNs) have achieved superior performance on node classification tasks. Our work considers a challenging inductive setting where a set of labeled graphs are available for training while the unlabeled target graph is completely separate. Under the implicit assumption that the testing and training graphs come from similar distributions, our goal is to develop a labeling function that generalizes to unobserved connectivity structures.
