Networks are ubiquitous structure that describes complex relationships between different entities in the real world. As a critical component of prediction task over nodes in networks, learning the feature representation of nodes has become one of the most active areas recently. Network Embedding, aiming to learn non-linear and low-dimensional feature representation based on network topology, has been proved to be helpful on tasks of network analysis, especially node classification. For many real-world systems, multiple types of relations are naturally represented by multiple networks. However, existing network embedding methods mainly focus on single network embedding and neglect the information shared among different networks. In this paper, we propose a novel multiple network embedding method based on semisupervised autoencoder, named DeepMNE, which captures complex topological structures of multi-networks and takes the correlation among multi-networks into account. We evaluate DeepMNE on the task of node classification with two real-world datasets. The experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of our method over four state-of-the-art algorithms.

Data in real-world application often exhibit skewed class distribution which poses an intense challenge for machine learning. Conventional classification algorithms are not effective in the case of imbalanced data distribution, and may fail when the data distribution is highly imbalanced. To address this issue, we propose a general imbalanced classification model based on deep reinforcement learning. We formulate the classification problem as a sequential decision-making process and solve it by deep Q-learning network. The agent performs a classification action on one sample at each time step, and the environment evaluates the classification action and returns a reward to the agent. The reward from minority class sample is larger so the agent is more sensitive to the minority class. The agent finally finds an optimal classification policy in imbalanced data under the guidance of specific reward function and beneficial learning environment. Experiments show that our proposed model outperforms the other imbalanced classification algorithms, and it can identify more minority samples and has great classification performance.
Multi-view network embedding aims at projecting nodes in the network to low-dimensional vectors, while preserving their multiple relations and attribute information. Contrastive learning-based methods have preliminarily shown promising performance in this task. However, most contrastive learning-based methods mostly rely on high-quality graph embedding and explore less on the relationships between different graph views. To deal with these deficiencies, we design a novel node-to-node Contrastive learning framework for Multi-view network Embedding (CREME), which mainly contains two contrastive objectives: Multi-view fusion InfoMax and Inter-view InfoMin. The former objective distills information from embeddings generated from different graph views, while the latter distinguishes different graph views better to capture the complementary information between them. Specifically, we first apply a view encoder to generate each graph view representation and utilize a multi-view aggregator to fuse these representations. Then, we unify the two contrastive objectives into one learning objective for training. Extensive experiments on three real-world datasets show that CREME outperforms existing methods consistently.
The robustness of the much-used Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) to perturbations of their input is becoming a topic of increasing importance. In this paper, the random GCN is introduced for which a random matrix theory analysis is possible. This analysis suggests that if the graph is sufficiently perturbed, or in the extreme case random, then the GCN fails to benefit from the node features. It is furthermore observed that enhancing the message passing step in GCNs by adding the node feature kernel to the adjacency matrix of the graph structure solves this problem. An empirical study of a GCN utilised for node classification on six real datasets further confirms the theoretical findings and demonstrates that perturbations of the graph structure can result in GCNs performing significantly worse than Multi-Layer Perceptrons run on the node features alone. In practice, adding a node feature kernel to the message passing of perturbed graphs results in a significant improvement of the GCNs performance, thereby rendering it more robust to graph perturbations. Our code is publicly available at:https://github.com/ChangminWu/RobustGCN.
Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) have achieved promising performance on various graph-based tasks. However they suffer from over-smoothing when stacking more layers. In this paper, we present a quantitative study on this observation and develop novel insights towards the deeper GCN. First, we interpret the current graph convolutional operations from an optimization perspective and argue that over-smoothing is mainly caused by the naive first-order approximation of the solution to the optimization problem. Subsequently, we introduce two metrics to measure the over-smoothing on node-level tasks. Specifically, we calculate the fraction of the pairwise distance between connected and disconnected nodes to the overall distance respectively. Based on our theoretical and empirical analysis, we establish a universal theoretical framework of GCN from an optimization perspective and derive a novel convolutional kernel named GCN+ which has lower parameter amount while relieving the over-smoothing inherently. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate the superior performance of GCN+ over state-of-the-art baseline methods on the node classification tasks.
Recently, Graph Neural Network (GNN) has achieved remarkable progresses in various real-world tasks on graph data, consisting of node features and the adjacent information between different nodes. High-performance GNN models always depend on both rich features and complete edge information in graph. However, such information could possibly be isolated by different data holders in practice, which is the so-called data isolation problem. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose VFGNN, a federated GNN learning paradigm for privacy-preserving node classification task under data vertically partitioned setting, which can be generalized to existing GNN models. Specifically, we split the computation graph into two parts. We leave the private data (i.e., features, edges, and labels) related computations on data holders, and delegate the rest of computations to a semi-honest server. We also propose to apply differential privacy to prevent potential information leakage from the server. We conduct experiments on three benchmarks and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of VFGNN.
