Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) have achieved great success in graph representation learning by extracting high-level features from nodes and their topology. Since GCNs generally follow a message-passing mechanism, each node aggregates information from its first-order neighbour to update its representation. As a result, the representations of nodes with edges between them should be positively correlated and thus can be considered positive samples. However, there are more non-neighbour nodes in the whole graph, which provide diverse and useful information for the representation update. Two non-adjacent nodes usually have different representations, which can be seen as negative samples. Besides the node representations, the structural information of the graph is also crucial for learning. In this paper, we used quality-diversity decomposition in determinant point processes (DPP) to obtain diverse negative samples. When defining a distribution on diverse subsets of all non-neighbouring nodes, we incorporate both graph structure information and node representations. Since the DPP sampling process requires matrix eigenvalue decomposition, we propose a new shortest-path-base method to improve computational efficiency. Finally, we incorporate the obtained negative samples into the graph convolution operation. The ideas are evaluated empirically in experiments on node classification tasks. These experiments show that the newly proposed methods not only improve the overall performance of standard representation learning but also significantly alleviate over-smoothing problems.

Deep learning has revolutionized many machine learning tasks in recent years, ranging from image classification and video processing to speech recognition and natural language understanding. The data in these tasks are typically represented in the Euclidean space. However, there is an increasing number of applications where data are generated from non-Euclidean domains and are represented as graphs with complex relationships and interdependency between objects. The complexity of graph data has imposed significant challenges on existing machine learning algorithms. Recently, many studies on extending deep learning approaches for graph data have emerged. In this survey, we provide a comprehensive overview of graph neural networks (GNNs) in data mining and machine learning fields. We propose a new taxonomy to divide the state-of-the-art graph neural networks into four categories, namely recurrent graph neural networks, convolutional graph neural networks, graph autoencoders, and spatial-temporal graph neural networks. We further discuss the applications of graph neural networks across various domains and summarize the open source codes, benchmark data sets, and model evaluation of graph neural networks. Finally, we propose potential research directions in this rapidly growing field.

Graph classification is an important area in both modern research and industry. Multiple applications, especially in chemistry and novel drug discovery, encourage rapid development of machine learning models in this area. To keep up with the pace of new research, proper experimental design, fair evaluation, and independent benchmarks are essential. Design of strong baselines is an indispensable element of such works. In this thesis, we explore multiple approaches to graph classification. We focus on Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), which emerged as a de facto standard deep learning technique for graph representation learning. Classical approaches, such as graph descriptors and molecular fingerprints, are also addressed. We design fair evaluation experimental protocol and choose proper datasets collection. This allows us to perform numerous experiments and rigorously analyze modern approaches. We arrive to many conclusions, which shed new light on performance and quality of novel algorithms. We investigate application of Jumping Knowledge GNN architecture to graph classification, which proves to be an efficient tool for improving base graph neural network architectures. Multiple improvements to baseline models are also proposed and experimentally verified, which constitutes an important contribution to the field of fair model comparison.

Deep learning has been shown to be successful in a number of domains, ranging from acoustics, images, to natural language processing. However, applying deep learning to the ubiquitous graph data is non-trivial because of the unique characteristics of graphs. Recently, substantial research efforts have been devoted to applying deep learning methods to graphs, resulting in beneficial advances in graph analysis techniques. In this survey, we comprehensively review the different types of deep learning methods on graphs. We divide the existing methods into five categories based on their model architectures and training strategies: graph recurrent neural networks, graph convolutional networks, graph autoencoders, graph reinforcement learning, and graph adversarial methods. We then provide a comprehensive overview of these methods in a systematic manner mainly by following their development history. We also analyze the differences and compositions of different methods. Finally, we briefly outline the applications in which they have been used and discuss potential future research directions.

图表神经网络（GNNS）在各种机器学习任务中获得了表示学习的提高。然而，应用邻域聚合的大多数现有GNN通常在图中的图表上执行不良，其中相邻的节点属于不同的类。在本文中，我们示出了在典型的异界图中，边缘可以被引导，以及是否像是处理边缘，也可以使它们过度地影响到GNN模型的性能。此外，由于异常的限制，节点对来自本地邻域之外的类似节点的消息非常有益。这些激励我们开发一个自适应地学习图表的方向性的模型，并利用潜在的长距离相关性节点之间。我们首先将图拉普拉斯概括为基于所提出的特征感知PageRank算法向数字化，该算法同时考虑节点之间的图形方向性和长距离特征相似性。然后，Digraph Laplacian定义了一个图形传播矩阵，导致一个名为{\ em diglaciangcn}的模型。基于此，我们进一步利用节点之间的通勤时间测量的节点接近度，以便在拓扑级别上保留节点的远距离相关性。具有不同级别的10个数据集的广泛实验，同意级别展示了我们在节点分类任务任务中对现有解决方案的有效性。

异质图卷积网络在解决异质网络数据的各种网络分析任务方面已广受欢迎，从链接预测到节点分类。但是，大多数现有作品都忽略了多型节点之间的多重网络的关系异质性，而在元路径中，元素嵌入中关系的重要性不同，这几乎无法捕获不同关系跨不同关系的异质结构信号。为了应对这一挑战，这项工作提出了用于异质网络嵌入的多重异质图卷积网络（MHGCN）。我们的MHGCN可以通过多层卷积聚合自动学习多重异质网络中不同长度的有用的异质元路径相互作用。此外，我们有效地将多相关结构信号和属性语义集成到学习的节点嵌入中，并具有无监督和精选的学习范式。在具有各种网络分析任务的五个现实世界数据集上进行的广泛实验表明，根据所有评估指标，MHGCN与最先进的嵌入基线的优势。

图表可以模拟实体之间的复杂交互，它在许多重要的应用程序中自然出现。这些应用程序通常可以投入到标准图形学习任务中，其中关键步骤是学习低维图表示。图形神经网络（GNN）目前是嵌入方法中最受欢迎的模型。然而，邻域聚合范例中的标准GNN患有区分\ EMPH {高阶}图形结构的有限辨别力，而不是\ EMPH {低位}结构。为了捕获高阶结构，研究人员求助于主题和开发的基于主题的GNN。然而，现有的基于主基的GNN仍然仍然遭受较少的辨别力的高阶结构。为了克服上述局限性，我们提出了一个新颖的框架，以更好地捕获高阶结构的新框架，铰接于我们所提出的主题冗余最小化操作员和注射主题组合的新颖框架。首先，MGNN生成一组节点表示W.R.T.每个主题。下一阶段是我们在图案中提出的冗余最小化，该主题在彼此相互比较并蒸馏出每个主题的特征。最后，MGNN通过组合来自不同图案的多个表示来执行节点表示的更新。特别地，为了增强鉴别的功率，MGNN利用重新注射功能来组合表示的函数w.r.t.不同的主题。我们进一步表明，我们的拟议体系结构增加了GNN的表现力，具有理论分析。我们展示了MGNN在节点分类和图形分类任务上的七个公共基准上表现出最先进的方法。

图表是一个宇宙数据结构，广泛用于组织现实世界中的数据。像交通网络，社交和学术网络这样的各种实际网络网络可以由图表代表。近年来，目睹了在网络中代表顶点的快速发展，进入低维矢量空间，称为网络表示学习。表示学习可以促进图形数据上的新算法的设计。在本调查中，我们对网络代表学习的当前文献进行了全面审查。现有算法可以分为三组：浅埋模型，异构网络嵌入模型，图形神经网络的模型。我们为每个类别审查最先进的算法，并讨论这些算法之间的基本差异。调查的一个优点是，我们系统地研究了不同类别的算法底层的理论基础，这提供了深入的见解，以更好地了解网络表示学习领域的发展。

图表学习目的旨在将节点内容与图形结构集成以学习节点/图表示。然而，发现许多现有的图形学习方法在具有高异性级别的数据上不能很好地工作，这是不同类标签之间很大比例的边缘。解决这个问题的最新努力集中在改善消息传递机制上。但是，尚不清楚异质性是否确实会损害图神经网络（GNNS）的性能。关键是要展现一个节点与其直接邻居之间的关系，例如它们是异性还是同质性？从这个角度来看，我们在这里研究了杂质表示在披露连接节点之间的关系之前/之后的杂音表示的作用。特别是，我们提出了一个端到端框架，该框架既学习边缘的类型（即异性/同质性），并利用边缘类型的信息来提高图形神经网络的表现力。我们以两种不同的方式实施此框架。具体而言，为了避免通过异质边缘传递的消息，我们可以通过删除边缘分类器鉴定的异性边缘来优化图形结构。另外，可以利用有关异性邻居的存在的信息进行特征学习，因此，设计了一种混合消息传递方法来汇总同质性邻居，并根据边缘分类使异性邻居多样化。广泛的实验表明，在整个同质级别的多个数据集上，通过在多个数据集上提出的框架对GNN的绩效提高了显着提高。

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have attracted increasing attention in recent years and have achieved excellent performance in semi-supervised node classification tasks. The success of most GNNs relies on one fundamental assumption, i.e., the original graph structure data is available. However, recent studies have shown that GNNs are vulnerable to the complex underlying structure of the graph, making it necessary to learn comprehensive and robust graph structures for downstream tasks, rather than relying only on the raw graph structure. In light of this, we seek to learn optimal graph structures for downstream tasks and propose a novel framework for semi-supervised classification. Specifically, based on the structural context information of graph and node representations, we encode the complex interactions in semantics and generate semantic graphs to preserve the global structure. Moreover, we develop a novel multi-measure attention layer to optimize the similarity rather than prescribing it a priori, so that the similarity can be adaptively evaluated by integrating measures. These graphs are fused and optimized together with GNN towards semi-supervised classification objective. Extensive experiments and ablation studies on six real-world datasets clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed model and the contribution of each component.

图形神经网络（GNN）是通过学习通用节点表示形式来建模和处理图形结构数据的主要范例。传统的培训方式GNNS取决于许多标记的数据，这导致了成本和时间的高需求。在某个特殊场景中，它甚至不可用。可以通过图形结构数据本身生成标签的自我监督表示学习是解决此问题的潜在方法。并且要研究对异质图的自学学习问题的研究比处理同质图更具挑战性，对此，研究也更少。在本文中，我们通过基于Metapath（SESIM）的结构信息提出了一种用于异质图的自我监督学习方法。提出的模型可以通过预测每个Metapath中节点之间的跳跃数来构建借口任务，以提高主任务的表示能力。为了预测跳跃数量，Sesim使用数据本身来生成标签，避免了耗时的手动标签。此外，预测每个Metapath中的跳跃数量可以有效地利用图形结构信息，这是节点之间的重要属性。因此，Sesim加深对图形结构模型的理解。最后，我们共同培训主要任务和借口任务，并使用元学习来平衡借口任务对主要任务的贡献。经验结果验证了SESIM方法的性能，并证明该方法可以提高传统神经网络在链接预测任务和节点分类任务上的表示能力。

Graph neural networks have shown significant success in the field of graph representation learning. Graph convolutions perform neighborhood aggregation and represent one of the most important graph operations. Nevertheless, one layer of these neighborhood aggregation methods only consider immediate neighbors, and the performance decreases when going deeper to enable larger receptive fields. Several recent studies attribute this performance deterioration to the over-smoothing issue, which states that repeated propagation makes node representations of different classes indistinguishable. In this work, we study this observation systematically and develop new insights towards deeper graph neural networks. First, we provide a systematical analysis on this issue and argue that the key factor compromising the performance significantly is the entanglement of representation transformation and propagation in current graph convolution operations. After decoupling these two operations, deeper graph neural networks can be used to learn graph node representations from larger receptive fields. We further provide a theoretical analysis of the above observation when building very deep models, which can serve as a rigorous and gentle description of the over-smoothing issue. Based on our theoretical and empirical analysis, we propose Deep Adaptive Graph Neural Network (DAGNN) to adaptively incorporate information from large receptive fields. A set of experiments on citation, coauthorship, and co-purchase datasets have confirmed our analysis and insights and demonstrated the superiority of our proposed methods.

In the last few years, graph neural networks (GNNs) have become the standard toolkit for analyzing and learning from data on graphs. This emerging field has witnessed an extensive growth of promising techniques that have been applied with success to computer science, mathematics, biology, physics and chemistry. But for any successful field to become mainstream and reliable, benchmarks must be developed to quantify progress. This led us in March 2020 to release a benchmark framework that i) comprises of a diverse collection of mathematical and real-world graphs, ii) enables fair model comparison with the same parameter budget to identify key architectures, iii) has an open-source, easy-to-use and reproducible code infrastructure, and iv) is flexible for researchers to experiment with new theoretical ideas. As of December 2022, the GitHub repository has reached 2,000 stars and 380 forks, which demonstrates the utility of the proposed open-source framework through the wide usage by the GNN community. In this paper, we present an updated version of our benchmark with a concise presentation of the aforementioned framework characteristics, an additional medium-sized molecular dataset AQSOL, similar to the popular ZINC, but with a real-world measured chemical target, and discuss how this framework can be leveraged to explore new GNN designs and insights. As a proof of value of our benchmark, we study the case of graph positional encoding (PE) in GNNs, which was introduced with this benchmark and has since spurred interest of exploring more powerful PE for Transformers and GNNs in a robust experimental setting.

图形神经网络（GNN）是用于建模图数据的流行机器学习方法。许多GNN在同质图上表现良好，同时在异质图上表现不佳。最近，一些研究人员将注意力转移到设计GNN，以通过调整消息传递机制或扩大消息传递的接收场来设计GNN。与从模型设计的角度来减轻异性疾病问题的现有作品不同，我们建议通过重新布线结构来从正交角度研究异质图，以减少异质性并使传统GNN的表现更好。通过全面的经验研究和分析，我们验证了重新布线方法的潜力。为了充分利用其潜力，我们提出了一种名为Deep Hertophilly Graph Rewiring（DHGR）的方法，以通过添加同粒子边缘和修剪异质边缘来重新线图。通过比较节点邻居的标签/特征 - 分布的相似性来确定重新布线的详细方法。此外，我们为DHGR设计了可扩展的实现，以确保高效率。 DHRG可以轻松地用作任何GNN的插件模块，即图形预处理步骤，包括同型和异性的GNN，以提高其在节点分类任务上的性能。据我们所知，这是研究图形的第一部重新绘图图形的作品。在11个公共图数据集上进行的广泛实验证明了我们提出的方法的优势。

图形神经网络（GNNS）在建模图形结构数据方面表明了它们的能力。但是，实际图形通常包含结构噪声并具有有限的标记节点。当在这些图表中培训时，GNN的性能会显着下降，这阻碍了许多应用程序的GNN。因此，与有限标记的节点开发抗噪声GNN是重要的。但是，这是一个相当有限的工作。因此，我们研究了在具有有限标记节点的嘈杂图中开发鲁棒GNN的新问题。我们的分析表明，嘈杂的边缘和有限的标记节点都可能损害GNN的消息传递机制。为减轻这些问题，我们提出了一种新颖的框架，该框架采用嘈杂的边缘作为监督，以学习去噪和密集的图形，这可以减轻或消除嘈杂的边缘，并促进GNN的消息传递，以缓解有限标记节点的问题。生成的边缘还用于规则地将具有标记平滑度的未标记节点的预测规范化，以更好地列车GNN。实验结果对现实世界数据集展示了在具有有限标记节点的嘈杂图中提出框架的稳健性。

Recently, graph neural networks (GNNs) have revolutionized the field of graph representation learning through effectively learned node embeddings, and achieved state-of-the-art results in tasks such as node classification and link prediction. However, current GNN methods are inherently flat and do not learn hierarchical representations of graphs-a limitation that is especially problematic for the task of graph classification, where the goal is to predict the label associated with an entire graph. Here we propose DIFFPOOL, a differentiable graph pooling module that can generate hierarchical representations of graphs and can be combined with various graph neural network architectures in an end-to-end fashion. DIFFPOOL learns a differentiable soft cluster assignment for nodes at each layer of a deep GNN, mapping nodes to a set of clusters, which then form the coarsened input for the next GNN layer. Our experimental results show that combining existing GNN methods with DIFFPOOL yields an average improvement of 5-10% accuracy on graph classification benchmarks, compared to all existing pooling approaches, achieving a new state-of-the-art on four out of five benchmark data sets.

近年来，基于Weisfeiler-Leman算法的算法和神经架构，是一个众所周知的Graph同构问题的启发式问题，它成为具有图形和关系数据的机器学习的强大工具。在这里，我们全面概述了机器学习设置中的算法的使用，专注于监督的制度。我们讨论了理论背景，展示了如何将其用于监督的图形和节点表示学习，讨论最近的扩展，并概述算法的连接（置换 - ）方面的神经结构。此外，我们概述了当前的应用和未来方向，以刺激进一步的研究。

图表表示学习是一种快速增长的领域，其中一个主要目标是在低维空间中产生有意义的图形表示。已经成功地应用了学习的嵌入式来执行各种预测任务，例如链路预测，节点分类，群集和可视化。图表社区的集体努力提供了数百种方法，但在所有评估指标下没有单一方法擅长，例如预测准确性，运行时间，可扩展性等。该调查旨在通过考虑算法来评估嵌入方法的所有主要类别的图表变体，参数选择，可伸缩性，硬件和软件平台，下游ML任务和多样化数据集。我们使用包含手动特征工程，矩阵分解，浅神经网络和深图卷积网络的分类法组织了图形嵌入技术。我们使用广泛使用的基准图表评估了节点分类，链路预测，群集和可视化任务的这些类别算法。我们在Pytorch几何和DGL库上设计了我们的实验，并在不同的多核CPU和GPU平台上运行实验。我们严格地审查了各种性能指标下嵌入方法的性能，并总结了结果。因此，本文可以作为比较指南，以帮助用户选择最适合其任务的方法。

消息传递已作为设计图形神经网络（GNN）的有效工具的发展。但是，消息传递的大多数现有方法简单地简单或平均所有相邻的功能更新节点表示。它们受到两个问题的限制，即（i）缺乏可解释性来识别对GNN的预测重要的节点特征，以及（ii）特征过度混合，导致捕获长期依赖和无能为力的过度平滑问题在异质或低同质的下方处理图。在本文中，我们提出了一个节点级胶囊图神经网络（NCGNN），以通过改进的消息传递方案来解决这些问题。具体而言，NCGNN表示节点为节点级胶囊组，其中每个胶囊都提取其相应节点的独特特征。对于每个节点级胶囊，开发了一个新颖的动态路由过程，以适应适当的胶囊，以从设计的图形滤波器确定的子图中聚集。 NCGNN聚集仅有利的胶囊并限制无关的消息，以避免交互节点的过度混合特征。因此，它可以缓解过度平滑的问题，并通过同粒或异质的图表学习有效的节点表示。此外，我们提出的消息传递方案本质上是可解释的，并免于复杂的事后解释，因为图形过滤器和动态路由过程确定了节点特征的子集，这对于从提取的子分类中的模型预测最为重要。关于合成和现实图形的广泛实验表明，NCGNN可以很好地解决过度光滑的问题，并为半监视的节点分类产生更好的节点表示。它的表现优于同质和异质的艺术状态。
