Maximum Independent Set: Self-Training through Dynamic Programming

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

This work presents a graph neural network (GNN) framework for solving the maximum independent set (MIS) problem, inspired by dynamic programming (DP). Specifically, given a graph, we propose a DP-like recursive algorithm based on GNNs that firstly construc ...
