SEMI-SUPERVISED CLASSIFICATION WITH GRAPH CONVOLUTIONAL NETWORKS

22 Feb 2017 | Thomas N. Kipf, Max Welling
The paper presents a scalable approach for semi-supervised learning on graph-structured data using a variant of convolutional neural networks that operate directly on graphs. The authors motivate their convolutional architecture through a localized first-order approximation of spectral graph convolutions. Their model scales linearly with the number of graph edges and learns hidden layer representations that encode both local graph structure and node features. Experiments on citation networks and a knowledge graph dataset demonstrate that their approach outperforms related methods in terms of classification accuracy and efficiency. The paper also discusses the theoretical motivation for the proposed model, including the spectral graph convolutions and the layer-wise linear model. Additionally, it explores the impact of model depth on classification performance and provides a comparison with related work.The paper presents a scalable approach for semi-supervised learning on graph-structured data using a variant of convolutional neural networks that operate directly on graphs.
