Nature vs. Nurture: Feature vs. Structure for Graph Neural Networks

Karl Aberer, Thành Tâm Nguyên, Chi Thang Duong

Graph neural networks take node features and graph structure as input to build representations for nodes and graphs. While there are a lot of focus on GNN models, understanding the impact of node features and graph structure to GNN performance has received ...

SPECTRE: Spectral Conditioning Helps to Overcome the Expressivity Limits of One-shot Graph Generators

Nathanaël Perraudin, Andreas Loukas, Karolis Martinkus

We approach the graph generation problem from a spectral perspective by first generating the dominant parts of the graph Laplacian spectrum and then building a graph matching these eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Spectral conditioning allows for direct model ...

A Unified Experiment Design Approach for Cyclic and Acyclic Causal Models

Negar Kiyavash, Ehsan Mokhtarian, Saber Salehkaleybar

We study experiment design for unique identification of the causal graph of a system where the graph may contain cycles. The presence of cycles in the structure introduces major challenges for experiment design as, unlike acyclic graphs, learning the skele ...

Space-Efficient Representations of Graphs

Jakab Tardos

With the increasing prevalence of massive datasets, it becomes important to design algorithmic techniques for dealing with scenarios where the input to be processed does not fit in the memory of a single machine. Many highly successful approaches have emer ...

The micro-world of cographs

Dominique de Werra

Cographs constitute a small point in the atlas of graph classes. However, by zooming in on this point, we discover a complex world, where many parameters jump from finiteness to infinity. In the present paper, we identify several milestones in the world of ...

Planted matching problems on random hypergraphs

Lenka Zdeborová, Anshul Toshniwal, Gabriele Sicuro

We consider the problem of inferring a matching hidden in a weighted random k-hypergraph. We assume that the hyperedges' weights are random and distributed according to two different densities conditioning on the fact that they belong to the hidden matchin ...

The power of adaptivity in source identification with time queries on the path

Patrick Thiran, Gergely Odor, Victor Cyril L Lecomte

We study the problem of identifying the source of a stochastic diffusion process spreading on a graph based on the arrival times of the diffusion at a few queried nodes. In a graph

G=(V,E)

, an unknown source node

v^* \in V

is drawn uniformly at random, ...

Adaptive majority problems for restricted query graphs and for weighted sets

Abhishek Methuku, Balázs Keszegh

Suppose that the vertices of a graph G are colored with two colors in an unknown way. The color that occurs on more than half of the vertices is called the majority color (if it exists), and any vertex of this color is called a majority vertex. We study th ...

Sequential metric dimension for random graphs

Patrick Thiran, Gergely Odor

In the localization game on a graph, the goal is to find a fixed but unknown target node v* with the least number of distance queries possible. In the j-th step of the game, the player queries a single node v_j and receives, as an answer to their query, th ...

Representation Learning for Multi-relational Data

Eda Bayram

Recent years have witnessed a rise in real-world data captured with rich structural information that can be better depicted by multi-relational or heterogeneous graphs.However, research on relational representation learning has so far mostly focused on the ...
