This work explores the connection between topology awareness and GNN generalization performance, introducing a framework based on metric embedding. A case study validates these findings, highlighting their relevance to real-world applications like active learning. However, the study's limitations include overlooking the internal mechanisms that reduce distortion and focusing solely on the transductive setting, leaving room for future research in inductive settings.

The case study examines how GNN models generalize across subgroups defined by their shortest-path distance to the training set. Results show that GNNs perform better on structurally closer subgroups, aligning with theoretical predictions on fairness and accuracy. Insights from the study are applied to solve the cold start problem in graph active learning, using a coverage-based sampling algorithm for improved model performance and fairness.

This section introduces two key theorems about the generalization performance of GNNs. The first shows how structural distance impacts accuracy, while the second highlights potential fairness issues across different subgroups. Additionally, the findings are linked to deep learning spline theory, suggesting a "valley effect" in GNN performance based on structural proximity to the training set.

We propose a framework that uses metric distortion to study the link between topology awareness and generalization in Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). By examining how GNNs preserve structural properties in their embeddings, we reveal insights into their generalization performance, particularly in node classification tasks. The framework is adaptable to various graph structures.

This section reviews the landscape of research surrounding topology awareness in Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and its connection to generalization performance. Despite the common belief that increasing topology awareness is beneficial, the precise impacts remain unclear. It also discusses the challenges of applying active learning to GNNs, particularly the cold-start problem, and proposes a novel approach that leverages graph structure over initial feature quality.

This paper introduces a framework to analyze the relationship between topology awareness and generalization performance in Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). It reveals that increased topology awareness can lead to uneven generalization across structural subgroups, challenging the assumption that enhancing topology awareness is always beneficial. A case study on shortest-path distance validates these findings and highlights practical applications in mitigating the cold start problem in...

Postman pre-request scripts streamline testing of APIs. The scripts automatically generate a random 12-character transaction reference. This random reference is shared with other endpoints, making it easy for the APIs to access the same reference seamlessly. The value generated gets reused across any endpoint that needs it, keeping my testing smooth and consistent.

Data literacy is the ability to interpret and interact with information meaningfully. It includes critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, and visualization. To improve your data literacy, practice on any dataset available to you.

Aside from AlphaFold, Google Research, in part, is also working in quantum consciousness, with such an amateur theory that there is no hope it would ever answer the question. Google is also using computational science to map the brain, in connectomics, with zero to negligible theory, without even daring to check, observe, infer or question if the neuron is the basic unit of the...
