Graph representation learning

What should a graph model preserve?

Multi-hop propagation, heterogeneous networks, and graph neural networks.

The research question

How should models combine a node’s information with information from its neighborhood? My work studies propagation across multiple hops, the preservation of node information, and representations for networks with multiple relations.

Higher-order propagation

HOPF combines iterative inference with differentiable graph kernels. It addresses node information morphing, where neighborhood information can overwhelm information about the node itself. The project explores preserving node information through propagation.

Fusion and local structure

Fusion Graph Convolutional Networks study how to regulate information from different neighborhood hops. EGO-GNNs, a collaboration with D Sandfelder and W L Hamilton, explores ego structures in graph neural networks.

Multiple views and relations

Other collaborations examine semi-supervised learning on multiplex networks, heterogeneous link prediction from a multi-view perspective, and non-negative matrix factorization for graph-based semi-supervised learning.

Benchmarking and analysis

Our network representation benchmark examines which improvements persist under systematic evaluation. This work complements model development by studying the effects of baselines, datasets, and evaluation choices.
