• Abstract summary: We introduce a novel Class-wise Selection for Graph Neural Networks, dubbed CSGNN. To tackle the class imbalance issue, we introduce a dynamic class-wise selection mechanism, leveraging the clustering technique to identify clean nodes. To alleviate the problem of noisy labels, built on the concept of the memorization effect, CSGNN prioritizes learning from clean nodes before noisy ones.

• Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a powerful tool for representation learning on graphs, but they often suffer from overfitting and label noise issues, especially when the data is scarce or imbalanced. Different from the paradigm of previous methods that rely on single-node confidence, in this paper, we introduce a novel Class-wise Selection for Graph Neural Networks, dubbed CSGNN, which employs a neighbor-aggregated latent space to adaptively select reliable nodes across different classes. Specifically, 1) to tackle the class imbalance issue, we introduce a dynamic class-wise selection mechanism, leveraging the clustering technique to identify clean nodes based on the neighbor-aggregated confidences. In this way, our approach can avoid the pitfalls of biased sampling which is common with global threshold techniques. 2) To alleviate the problem of noisy labels, built on the concept of the memorization effect, CSGNN prioritizes learning from clean nodes before noisy ones, thereby iteratively enhancing model performance while mitigating label noise. Through extensive experiments, we demonstrate that CSGNN outperforms state-of-the-art methods in terms of both effectiveness and robustness.

  Graph self-training is a semi-supervised learning method that iteratively selects a set of unlabeled data to retrain the underlying graph neural network (GNN) model. We propose BANGS, a novel framework that unifies the labeling strategy with conditional mutual information as the objective of node selection. Our approach -- grounded in game theory -- selects nodes in a fashion and provides theoretical guarantees for robustness under noisy objective.

Our approach could not only smooth the representations of nodes belonging to the same class, but also explicitly encode the label semantics into the learning process of GNNs.

  This paper bridges the gap by proposing a pairwise framework for noisy node classification on graphs. PI-GNN relies on the PI as a primary learning proxy in addition to the pointwise learning from the noisy node class labels. Our proposed framework PI-GNN contributes two novel components: (1) a confidence-aware PI estimation model that adaptively estimates the PI labels, and (2) a decoupled training approach that leverages the estimated PI labels.
