Add to EdgeMulti-label Node Classification On Graph-Structured Data
Apr 20, 2023
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown state-of-the-art improvements in node classification tasks on graphs. While these improvements have been largely demonstrated in a multi-class classification scenario, a more general and realistic scenario in which each node could have multiple labels has so far received little attention. The first challenge in conducting focused studies on multi-label node classification is the limited number of publicly available multi-label graph datasets. Therefore, as our first contribution, we collect and release three real-world biological datasets and develop a multi-label graph generator to generate datasets with tunable properties. While high label similarity (high homophily) is usually attributed to the success of GNNs, we argue that a multi-label scenario does not follow the usual semantics of homophily and heterophily so far defined for a multi-class scenario. As our second contribution, besides defining homophily for the multi-label scenario, we develop a new approach that dynamically fuses the feature and label correlation information to learn label-informed representations. Finally, we perform a large-scale comparative study with $10$ methods and $9$ datasets which also showcase the effectiveness of our approach. We release our benchmark at \url{https://anonymous.4open.science/r/LFLF-5D8C/}.
