• Abstract: Most existing graph visualization methods based on dimension reduction are limited to relatively small graphs due to performance issues. In this work, we propose a novel dimension reduction method for graph visualization, called t-Distributed Stochastic Graph Neighbor Embedding (t-SGNE). t-SGNE is specifically designed to visualize cluster structures in the graph. As a variant of the standard t-SNE method, t-SGNE avoids the time-consuming computations of pairwise similarity. Instead, it uses the neighbor structures of the graph to reduce the time complexity from quadratic to linear, thus supporting larger graphs. In addition, to suit t-SGNE, we combined Laplacian Eigenmaps with the shortest path algorithm in graphs to form the graph embedding algorithm ShortestPath Laplacian Eigenmaps Embedding (SPLEE). Performing SPLEE to obtain a high-dimensional embedding of the large-scale graph and then using t-SGNE to reduce its dimension for visualization, we are able to visualize graphs with up to 300K nodes and 1M edges within 5 minutes and achieve approximately 10% improvement in visualization quality.

• Learning on Large Graphs using Intersecting Communities [13.053266613831447]
  MPNNs iteratively update each node's representation in an input graph by aggregating messages from the node's neighbors. MPNNs might quickly become prohibitive for large graphs provided they are not very sparse. We propose approximating the input graph as an intersecting community graph (ICG) -- a combination of intersecting cliques.

  We present three methods that exploit the induced graphon representation of graphs and graph signals on partitions of [0, 1]2 in the graphon space. We prove that those low dimensional representations constitute a convergent sequence of graphs and graph signals. We observe that graphon pooling performs significantly better than other approaches proposed in the literature when dimensionality reduction ratios between layers are large.

  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.
