Abstract

Graph Representation Learning aims to learn a rich and low-dimensional node embedding while preserving the graph properties. In this paper, we propose a novel Deep Attributed Graph Embedding (DAGE) that learns node representations based on both the topological structure and node attributes. DAGE a is able to capture, in a linear time and with a limited number of trainable parameters, the highly non-linear properties of attributed graphs. The proposed approach outperforms the current state-of-the-art approaches on node classification and node clustering tasks at a lower computational costs.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The source code of DAGE is available at https://github.com/MIND-Lab/DAGE.

  2. 2.

    We employed the default parameters provided by the Scikit-learn Python library, training all the investigated models using the same SVM configuration scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.svm.LinearSVC.html.
