Beschreibung

Graph Neural Networks are a set of novel techniques aimed at enabling deep neural networks to work on heterogeneous graphs, e.g., social networks, knowledge graphs, recommender systems, gene regulatory networks, traffic networks, etc. These heterogeneous graphs became central components of complex software systems, which make predictions and interventions on the structure and behavior of the system and its context (e.g., users, environment). Take, for instance, the mitigation of the spread of an event (accident, rumors, disease) through a network (traffic, social network). The heterogeneous network would model the current state of connections, their strength, and multiple properties in their nodes and edges. This complex data would be used to predict the propagation paths and indicate the best set of nodes to intervene to mitigate the spread of rumors or disease and its effect on a system as a whole (traffic, population). Interventions can involve changes in the connections (isolate, circumvent, shortcut) and the attributes of the nodes (duplicate, reset, extend).

Note, however, that neural networks algorithms were initially developed to solve problems in the domains of computer vision (3D and 2D) and natural language processing (1D). These domains present Euclidean spaces that allow neural networks to leverage on the regularities inherent to coordinate systems, vector space structures, or fixed distributions. Because these regularities are not guaranteed to be present in heterogeneous networks, new extensions were developed to these algorithms.

In this project seminar, we will study extensions to neural networks and apply them to heterogeneous graphs of real-world problems. We will tackle these domain-specific problems in a principled way by solving the more generic graph-related problems of node classification, structure discovery, path identification, subgraph generation.

Lern- und Lehrformen

The course is a project seminar, which has an introductory phase comprising initial short lectures. After that, the students will work in groups on jointly identified experiments applying specific solutions to given problems and finally prepare a presentation and write a report about their findings concerning the experiments.

There will be an introductory phase to present basic concepts for the theme, including the necessary foundations.

Lectures will happen in a seminar room and the students interested can also join online via Zoom (credentials)*

Leistungserfassung

We will grade the group's reports (80%) and presentations (20%). Note that the report includes documenting the experiments and the obtained results. Therefore, the grading of the report includes the experiments. During the project phase, we will require participation in meetings and other groups' presentations in the form of questions and feedback to their peers.

Termine

The first lecture will take place on October 18, 2022 (Tuesday) from 11:00-12:30. The lectures will take place in rooms L-1.02(Tuesdays) and A-2.1(Wednesdays) and remotely via Zoom (credentials)*

We will follow the recurrent schedule of:

  • Tuesdays from 11:00-12:30 in room A-1.2
  • Wednesdays from 15:15-17:00 in room A-2.1 (different room)
