• Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) excel in many graph machine learning tasks but face challenges when scaling to large networks. GNN transferability allows training on smaller graphs and applying the model to larger ones, but existing methods often rely on random subsampling, leading to disconnected subgraphs and reduced model expressivity. We propose a novel graph sampling algorithm that leverages feature homophily to preserve graph structure. By minimizing the trace of the data correlation matrix, our method better preserves the graph Laplacian's rank than random sampling while achieving lower complexity than spectral methods. Experiments on citation networks show improved performance in preserving graph rank and GNN transferability compared to random sampling.

  The ubiquity of large-scale graphs in node-classification tasks hinders the real-world applications of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) This paper studies graph coresets for GNNs and avoids the interdependence issue by selecting ego-graphs based on their spectral embeddings. Our spectral greedy graph coreset (SGGC) scales to graphs with millions of nodes, obviates the need for model pre-training, and applies to low-homophily graphs.

  Graph neural networks learn to represent nodes by aggregating information from their neighbors.

We introduce GRAPES, an adaptive sampling method that learns to identify the set of nodes crucial for training a GNN.

  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.
