Node Classification of Graph Neural Networks Based on Graph Degree-Symmetry

Published:09 January 2024Publication History

ABSTRACT

In order to accurately reflect the information of each node's neighbours and the topological relationship of the graph structure, the graph neural network node classification task aims to treat each node and all of its neighbouring nodes as a subgraph and update the feature representation of each node through information transfer. However, a crucial aspect of network symmetry is disregarded in the current research of the graph neural network node classification job, resulting in redundant data in the training dataset. Consequently, this research suggests a strategy for classifying nodes in a graph neural network based on graph degree-symmetry (The same abbreviation later is GDS). The next two steps make up the majority of the method: Using the nauty technique to retrieve the network's track information, calculating the similarity between nodes according to the degree-symmetry, then applying the softmax function for normalization, assigning weights to each neighboring node; Lastly, neighborhood node information is combined, the node information is updated using weighted summation to produce graph data with more useful node characteristics. The revised network is then re-entered into the graph neural network for convolution, which increases the accuracy of the classification task. In this paper, GDS is equipped with SIGN, MixHop, SGC models to improve the performance. Three publicly accessible citation network datasets were used for the experimental analysis of GDS fitted with the three graph neural network models mentioned above. The findings of the analysis confirmed the efficacy of GDS, showing that GDS can more effectively utilize the semantic information of graphs to synthesize more reasonable node feature representations to improve node classification.
