textit{Graph Neural Network} (GNN) is a promising approach for analyzing graph-structured data that tactfully captures their dependency information via node-level message passing. It has achieved state-of-the-art performances in many tasks, such as node classification, graph matching, clustering, and graph generation. As GNNs operate on non-Euclidean data, their irregular data access patterns cause considerable computational costs and overhead on conventional architectures, such as GPU and CPU. Our analysis shows that GNN adopts a hybrid computing model. The textit{Aggregation} (or textit{Message Passing}) phase performs vector additions where vectors are fetched with irregular strides. The textit{Transformation} (or textit{Node Embedding}) phase can be either dense or sparse-dense matrix multiplication. In this work, We propose textit{VersaGNN}, an ultra-efficient, systolic-array-based versatile hardware accelerator that unifies dense and sparse matrix multiplication. By applying this single optimized systolic array to both aggregation and transformation phases, we have significantly reduced chip sizes and energy consumption. We then divide the computing engine into blocked systolic arrays to support the textit{Strassen}s algorithm for dense matrix multiplication, dramatically scaling down the number of multiplications and enabling high-throughput computation of GNNs. To balance the workload of sparse-dense matrix multiplication, we also introduced a greedy algorithm to combine sparse sub-matrices of compressed format into condensed ones to reduce computational cycles. Compared with current state-of-the-art GNN software frameworks, textit{VersaGNN} achieves on average 3712$times$ speedup with 1301.25$times$ energy reduction on CPU, and 35.4$times$ speedup with 17.66$times$ energy reduction on GPU.

As neural network model sizes have dramatically increased, so has the interest in various techniques to reduce their parameter counts and accelerate their execution. An active area of research in this field is sparsity - encouraging zero values in pa
rameters that can then be discarded from storage or computations. While most research focuses on high levels of sparsity, there are challenges in universally maintaining model accuracy as well as achieving significant speedups over modern matrix-math hardware. To make sparsity adoption practical, the NVIDIA Ampere GPU architecture introduces sparsity support in its matrix-math units, Tensor Cores. We present the design and behavior of Sparse Tensor Cores, which exploit a 2:4 (50%) sparsity pattern that leads to twice the math throughput of dense matrix units. We also describe a simple workflow for training networks that both satisfy 2:4 sparsity pattern requirements and maintain accuracy, verifying it on a wide range of common tasks and model architectures. This workflow makes it easy to prepare accurate models for efficient deployment on Sparse Tensor Cores.
While many existing graph neural networks (GNNs) have been proven to perform $ell_2$-based graph smoothing that enforces smoothness globally, in this work we aim to further enhance the local smoothness adaptivity of GNNs via $ell_1$-based graph smoot
hing. As a result, we introduce a family of GNNs (Elastic GNNs) based on $ell_1$ and $ell_2$-based graph smoothing. In particular, we propose a novel and general message passing scheme into GNNs. This message passing algorithm is not only friendly to back-propagation training but also achieves the desired smoothing properties with a theoretical convergence guarantee. Experiments on semi-supervised learning tasks demonstrate that the proposed Elastic GNNs obtain better adaptivity on benchmark datasets and are significantly robust to graph adversarial attacks. The implementation of Elastic GNNs is available at url{https://github.com/lxiaorui/ElasticGNN}.
Existing graph neural networks (GNNs) largely rely on node embeddings, which represent a node as a vector by its identity, type, or content. However, graphs with unlabeled nodes widely exist in real-world applications (e.g., anonymized social network
s). Previous GNNs either assign random labels to nodes (which introduces artefacts to the GNN) or assign one embedding to all nodes (which fails to distinguish one node from another). In this paper, we analyze the limitation of existing approaches in two types of classification tasks, graph classification and node classification. Inspired by our analysis, we propose two techniques, Dynamic Labeling and Preferential Dynamic Labeling, that satisfy desired properties statistically or asymptotically for each type of the task. Experimental results show that we achieve high performance in various graph-related tasks.
The complexity and non-Euclidean structure of graph data hinder the development of data augmentation methods similar to those in computer vision. In this paper, we propose a feature augmentation method for graph nodes based on topological regularizat
ion, in which topological structure information is introduced into end-to-end model. Specifically, we first obtain topology embedding of nodes through unsupervised representation learning method based on random walk. Then, the topological embedding as additional features and the original node features are input into a dual graph neural network for propagation, and two different high-order neighborhood representations of nodes are obtained. On this basis, we propose a regularization technique to bridge the differences between the two different node representations, eliminate the adverse effects caused by the topological features of graphs directly used, and greatly improve the performance. We have carried out extensive experiments on a large number of datasets to prove the effectiveness of our model.
As large-scale graphs become increasingly more prevalent, it poses significant computational challenges to process, extract and analyze large graph data. Graph coarsening is one popular technique to reduce the size of a graph while maintaining essent
ial properties. Despite rich graph coarsening literature, there is only limited exploration of data-driven methods in the field. In this work, we leverage the recent progress of deep learning on graphs for graph coarsening. We first propose a framework for measuring the quality of coarsening algorithm and show that depending on the goal, we need to carefully choose the Laplace operator on the coarse graph and associated projection/lift operators. Motivated by the observation that the current choice of edge weight for the coarse graph may be sub-optimal, we parametrize the weight assignment map with graph neural networks and train it to improve the coarsening quality in an unsupervised way. Through extensive experiments on both synthetic and real networks, we demonstrate that our method significantly improves common graph coarsening methods under various metrics, reduction ratios, graph sizes, and graph types. It generalizes to graphs of larger size ($25times$ of training graphs), is adaptive to different losses (differentiable and non-differentiable), and scales to much larger graphs than previous work.
