• Abstract: Graph learning is the fundamental task of estimating unknown graph connectivity from available data. Typical approaches assume that not only is all information available simultaneously but also that all nodes can be observed. However, in many real-world scenarios, data can neither be known completely nor obtained all at once. We present a novel method for online graph estimation that accounts for the presence of hidden nodes. We consider signals that are stationary on the underlying graph, which provides a model for the unknown connections to hidden nodes. We then formulate a convex optimization problem for graph learning from streaming, incomplete graph signals. We solve the proposed problem through an efficient proximal gradient algorithm that can run in real-time as data arrives sequentially. Additionally, we provide theoretical conditions under which our online algorithm is similar to batch-wise solutions. Through experimental results on synthetic and real-world data, we demonstrate the viability of our approach for online graph learning in the presence of missing observations.

• Distributionally Robust Semi-Supervised Learning Over Graphs [68.29280230284712]
  Semi-supervised learning (SSL) over graph-structured data emerges in many network science applications. To efficiently manage learning over graphs, variants of graph neural networks (GNNs) have been developed recently. Despite their success in practice, most of existing methods are unable to handle graphs with uncertain nodal attributes. Challenges also arise due to distributional uncertainties associated with data acquired by noisy measurements. A distributionally robust learning framework is developed, where the objective is to train models that exhibit quantifiable robustness against perturbations.

• Line Graph Neural Networks for Link Prediction [71.00689542259052]
  We consider the graph link prediction task, which is a classic graph analytical problem with many real-world applications. In this formalism, a link prediction problem is converted to a graph classification task. We propose to seek a radically different and novel path by making use of the line graphs in graph theory. In particular, each node in a line graph corresponds to a unique edge in the original graph. Therefore, link prediction problems in the original graph can be equivalently solved as a node classification problem in its corresponding line graph, instead of a graph classification task.
