This document describes the node2vec algorithm for feature learning in networks. Node2vec uses random walks to sample the neighborhood of nodes in a network. It learns feature representations that maximize the likelihood of preserving network neighborhoods in a low-dimensional space. The algorithm introduces two parameters, p and q, that allow it to flexibly explore node neighborhoods. Experiments on real-world networks show node2vec produces high quality feature representations that achieve strong performance on tasks like multi-label classification and link prediction.

The document summarizes a student project to build a model that can efficiently represent nodes in large social networks as low-dimensional vectors. The model is based on the LINE paper, which learns embeddings by optimizing for first-order and second-order proximity. For their project, the students implemented the LINE approach in Torch, using the same node representations for both proximities and evaluating on the BlogCatalog dataset. Their model achieved F1 scores between 39-41% for node classification.
LPCNN: convolutional neural network for link prediction based on network stru...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In a social network (SN), link prediction (LP) is the process of estimating whether a link will exist in the future. In prior LP papers, heuristics score techniques were used. Recent state-of-the-art studies, like Wesfeiler-Lehman neural machine (WLNM) and learning from subgraphs, embeddings, and attributes for link prediction (SEAL), have demonstrated that heuristics scores may increase LP model accuracy by employing deep learning and sub-graphing techniques. WLNM and SEAL, on the other hand, have some limitations and perform poorly in some kinds of SNs. The goal of this research is to present a new framework for enhancing the effectiveness of LP models throughout various types of social networks while overcoming the constraints of earlier techniques. We present the link prediction based convolutional neural network (LPCNN) framework, which uses deep learning techniques to examine common neighbors and predict relations. Adapts the LP task into an image classification issue and classifies the links using a convolutional neural network. On 10 various types of real-work networks, tested the suggested LP model and compared its performance to heuristics and state-of-the-art approaches. Results revealed that our model outperforms the other LP benchmark approaches with an average area under curved (AUC) above 99%.
The document discusses using an adaptive algorithm to improve geographical search in networks. The algorithm uses agents that combine elements of known search strategies and adjust their weights based on traversal length. The agents traverse randomly generated graphs to find a goal node. Over many trials on diverse network topologies, the agents' strategies evolve to find shorter paths. This adaptive approach could discover search strategies tailored to different graph characteristics.
DeepWalk uses random walks to learn latent representations of graph nodes by treating walks as sentences, but only considers local neighborhoods. Node2vec generalizes DeepWalk by introducing parameters to control the walk behaviors, allowing it to explore neighborhoods more flexibly to learn richer representations. It biases random walks to balance between breadth-first and depth-first walks to better capture the mixtures of homophily and structural equivalence in networks.
Machine learning on graphs is an important and ubiquitous task with applications ranging from drug design to friendship recommendation in social networks. The primary challenge in this domain is finding a way to represent, or encode, graph structure so that it can be easily exploited by machine learning models. However, traditionally machine learning approaches relied on user-defined heuristics to extract features encoding structural information about a graph. In this talk I will discuss methods that automatically learn to encode graph structure into low-dimensional embeddings, using techniques based on deep learning and nonlinear dimensionality reduction. I will provide a conceptual review of key advancements in this area of representation learning on graphs, including random-walk based algorithms, and graph convolutional networks.

This document summarizes an undergraduate project to build a model that can efficiently represent nodes in large social networks as low-dimensional vectors. The project uses the LINE algorithm from the baseline paper as a starting point. Specifically, the project implements LINE's first-order and second-order proximity models in Torch and combines the learned embeddings, unlike the baseline paper which trains the models independently. The project aims to represent over 10,000 nodes from the BlogCatalog dataset within a scalable neural network model written in Lua using the Torch framework.

This document discusses two papers related to network embedding and ranking over multilayer networks.
The first paper proposes metapath2vec, a network embedding technique for heterogeneous networks. It extends word2vec to learn latent representations of nodes in a heterogeneous network by considering metapath-guided random walks.
The second paper proposes CrossRank and CrossQuery algorithms for ranking and querying over a network of networks (NoN). CrossRank learns global ranking vectors for each domain network in the NoN by optimizing for within-network smoothness, query preference, and cross-network consistency. CrossQuery efficiently finds the top-k most relevant nodes in a target network for a query node in a source network. Both methods are evaluated on

This document proposes a new graph embedding algorithm called Walklets that explicitly learns multi-scale network representations. Walklets uses a "skipping" mechanism during random walks to capture structural information at different scales. It learns representations by optimizing a loss function via stochastic gradient descent. Evaluation on social networks shows Walklets outperforms baselines by better modeling multi-scale effects and scales to large graphs through sampling approximations.

This document summarizes a research paper on Graph Transformers, which generalizes transformer networks to graph-structured data. It introduces the Graph Transformer model, which addresses two key challenges of applying transformers to graphs: sparsity and positional encodings. The model uses Laplacian eigenvectors to encode node positions and handles sparsity through restricted self-attention. Experiments show the Graph Transformer outperforms GNN baselines on molecular property prediction and node classification tasks. Future work may explore efficient training on large graphs and heterogeneous domains.

Machine Learning for Efficient Neighbor Selection in ...butest
This document proposes using machine learning for efficient neighbor selection in unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. It represents the neighbor selection problem as a classification task, where each node aims to select neighbors that are likely to answer its future queries. The approach uses support vector machines (SVMs) with feature selection to predict suitable neighbors from a node's minimal set of queries, achieving over 90% accuracy while requiring knowledge of less than 2% of a node's file tokens. By enabling nodes to efficiently select neighbors that can answer future queries, this approach aims to improve performance, scalability and resilience in self-organizing P2P overlays.

ResNet, short for "Residual Network," is a type of deep neural network architecture that was introduced by Microsoft researchers in 2015. ResNet is designed to address the problem of vanishing gradients, which can occur in deep neural networks that are many layers deep.
The main innovation in ResNet is the use of residual connections, also known as skip connections. These connections allow information from earlier layers of the network to bypass some of the later layers and be directly fed into the later layers. This helps to ensure that the gradient signal from the output can propagate back through the network during training, which can help to prevent the vanishing gradient problem.
ResNet has been shown to be very effective at image recognition and other computer vision tasks. It has achieved state-of-the-art performance on a number of benchmark datasets, such as ImageNet. Since its introduction, many variations and improvements to the original ResNet architecture have been proposed, including ResNeXt, Wide ResNet, and Residual Attention Network (RANet).

Introduction
Motivation
Supervised machine learning algorithms in network prediction tasks require informative, discriminating, and
independent features. Typically, these features are constructed through hand-engineering based on
domain-specific expertise. However, this process is tedious and the resulting features may not generalize
well across different prediction tasks.
Previous techniques fail to satisfactorily define and optimize a reasonable objective required for scalable
unsupervised feature learning in networks. Classic approaches based on linear and non-linear
dimensionality reduction techniques such as Principal Component Analysis, Multi-Dimensional Scaling and
their extensions optimize an objective that transforms a representative data matrix of the network such that
it maximizes the variance of the data representation. Consequently, these approaches invariably involve
eigendecomposition of the appropriate data matrix which is expensive for large real-world networks.
Moreover, the resulting latent representations give poor performance on various prediction tasks over
networks.

Introduction
Introduction
A node could be organized based on communities they belong to (i.e., homophily); in other cases, the
organization could be based on the structural roles of nodes in the network (i.e., structural equivalence).
Real-world networks commonly exhibit a mixture of such equivalences.

Introduction
Introduction
they propose node2vec, a semi-supervised algorithm for scalable feature learning in networks. they
optimize a custom graph-based objective function using SGD motivated by prior work on natural language
processing.
Intuitively, their approach returns feature representations that maximize the likelihood of preserving
network neighborhoods of nodes in a d-dimensional feature space. They use a 2nd order random walk
approach to generate (sample) network neighborhoods for nodes.

objectives, from nodes to pairs of nodes for edge-based prediction tasks.
4. They empirically evaluate node2vec for multi-label classification and link prediction on several real-
world datasets.

node. In Figure 1, DFS samples s4, s5, s6.

Conclusion
Conclusion
In this paper, they researched feature learning in networks as a search-based optimization problem. This
perspective provides us with several advantages. It can elucidate traditional search strategies based on the
balance between exploration and exploitation. Additionally, it imparts interpretability to the learned
representations when applied in prediction tasks.
The search strategy in node2vec allows flexible exploration and control of network neighborhoods
through parameters p and q. While these search parameters have intuitive interpretations, we achieve the
best results on complex networks when we can learn them directly from data.
From a practical standpoint, node2vec is scalable and robust. We demonstrated the superiority of
extending node embeddings over widely used heuristic scores for link prediction. Their methodology
allows additional binary operators beyond those listed in Table 1.
They aim to explore the reasons behind the success of the Hadamard operator over others in future work,
as well as establish interpretable equivalence notions for edges based on the search parameters.
