Graph Learning with 1D Convolutions on Random Walks
We propose CRaWl (CNNs for Random Walks), a novel neural network architecture for graph learning. It is based on processing sequences of small subgraphs induced by random walks with standard 1D CNNs. Thus, CRaWl is fundamentally different from typical message passing graph neural network architectures. It is inspired by techniques counting small subgraphs, such as the graphlet kernel and motif counting, and combines them with random walk based techniques in a highly efficient and scalable neural architecture. We demonstrate empirically that CRaWl matches or outperforms state-of-the-art GNN architectures across a multitude of benchmark datasets for graph learning.
