Bayesian Graph Convolutional Neural Networks Using Non-Parametric Graph Learning
share
Graph convolutional neural networks (GCNN) have been successfully applied to many different graph based learning tasks including node and graph classification, matrix completion, and learning of node embeddings. Despite their impressive performance, the techniques have a limited capability to incorporate the uncertainty in the underlined graph structure. In order to address this issue, a Bayesian GCNN (BGCN) framework was recently proposed. In this framework, the observed graph is considered to be a random realization from a parametric random graph model and the joint Bayesian inference of the graph and GCNN weights is performed. In this paper, we propose a non-parametric generative model for graphs and incorporate it within the BGCN framework. In addition to the observed graph, our approach effectively uses the node features and training labels in the posterior inference of graphs and attains superior or comparable performance in benchmark node classification tasks.
