We propose a new graph kernel for graph classification and comparison using Ollivier Ricci curvature. The Ricci curvature of an edge in a graph describes the connectivity in the local neighborhood. An edge in a densely connected neighborhood has positive curvature and an edge serving as a local bridge has negative curvature. We use the edge curvature distribution to form a graph kernel which is then used to compare and cluster graphs. The curvature kernel uses purely the graph topology and thereby works for settings when node attributes are not available.

Data clustering with uneven distribution in high level noise is challenging. Currently, HDBSCAN is considered as the SOTA algorithm for this problem. In this paper, we propose a novel clustering algorithm based on what we call graph of density topology (GDT). GDT jointly considers the local and global structures of data samples: firstly forming local clusters based on a density growing process with a strategy for properly noise handling as well as cluster boundary detection; and then estimating a GDT from relationship between local clusters in terms of a connectivity measure, givingglobal topological graph. The connectivity, measuring similarity between neighboring local clusters, is based on local clusters rather than individual points, ensuring its robustness to even very large noise. Evaluation results on both toy and real-world datasets show that GDT achieves the SOTA performance by far on almost all the popular datasets, and has a low time complexity of O(nlogn). The code is available at https://github.com/gaozhangyang/DGC.git.
Graph-structured data are an integral part of many application domains, including chemoinformatics, computational biology, neuroimaging, and social network analysis. Over the last two decades, numerous graph kernels, i.e. kernel functions between graphs, have been proposed to solve the problem of assessing the similarity between graphs, thereby making it possible to perform predictions in both classification and regression settings. This manuscript provides a review of existing graph kernels, their applications, software plus data resources, and an empirical comparison of state-of-the-art graph kernels.
Graphs are nowadays ubiquitous in the fields of signal processing and machine learning. As a tool used to express relationships between objects, graphs can be deployed to various ends: I) clustering of vertices, II) semi-supervised classification of vertices, III) supervised classification of graph signals, and IV) denoising of graph signals. However, in many practical cases graphs are not explicitly available and must therefore be inferred from data. Validation is a challenging endeavor that naturally depends on the downstream task for which the graph is learnt. Accordingly, it has often been difficult to compare the efficacy of different algorithms. In this work, we introduce several ease-to-use and publicly released benchmarks specifically designed to reveal the relative merits and limitations of graph inference methods. We also contrast some of the most prominent techniques in the literature.
Graphs are ubiquitous real-world data structures, and generative models that approximate distributions over graphs and derive new samples from them have significant importance. Among the known challenges in graph generation tasks, scalability handling of large graphs and datasets is one of the most important for practical applications. Recently, an increasing number of graph generative models have been proposed and have demonstrated impressive results. However, scalability is still an unresolved problem due to the complex generation process or difficulty in training parallelization. In this paper, we first define scalability from three different perspectives: number of nodes, data, and node/edge labels. Then, we propose GRAM, a generative model for graphs that is scalable in all three contexts, especially in training. We aim to achieve scalability by employing a novel graph attention mechanism, formulating the likelihood of graphs in a simple and general manner. Also, we apply two techniques to reduce computational complexity. Furthermore, we construct a unified and non-domain-specific evaluation metric in node/edge-labeled graph generation tasks by combining a graph kernel and Maximum Mean Discrepancy. Our experiments on synthetic and real-world graphs demonstrated the scalability of our models and their superior performance compared with baseline methods.
Graph kernels are widely used for measuring the similarity between graphs. Many existing graph kernels, which focus on local patterns within graphs rather than their global properties, suffer from significant structure information loss when representing graphs. Some recent global graph kernels, which utilizes the alignment of geometric node embeddings of graphs, yield state-of-the-art performance. However, these graph kernels are not necessarily positive-definite. More importantly, computing the graph kernel matrix will have at least quadratic {time} complexity in terms of the number and the size of the graphs. In this paper, we propose a new family of global alignment graph kernels, which take into account the global properties of graphs by using geometric node embeddings and an associated node transportation based on earth movers distance. Compared to existing global kernels, the proposed kernel is positive-definite. Our graph kernel is obtained by defining a distribution over emph{random graphs}, which can naturally yield random feature approximations. The random feature approximations lead to our graph embeddings, which is named as random graph embeddings (RGE). In particular, RGE is shown to achieve emph{(quasi-)linear scalability} with respect to the number and the size of the graphs. The experimental results on nine benchmark datasets demonstrate that RGE outperforms or matches twelve state-of-the-art graph classification algorithms.
