Graph Classification via Network Usable Information: From Representation Evaluation to Structure Selection
Abdullah Shaik, Anwar Said
We propose NetinfoGC, a framework for graph classification that extends the Network Usable Information (NUI) paradigm to graph-level learning. Unlike conventional graph neural netw…
Defining and Benchmarking a Data-Centric Design Space for Brain Graph Construction
Qinwen Ge, Roza G. Bayrak, Anwar Said +3
The construction of brain graphs from functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data plays a crucial role in enabling graph machine learning for neuroimaging. However, current p…
Feature Construction Using Network Control Theory and Rank Encoding for Graph Machine Learning
Anwar Said, Yifan Wei, Obaid Ullah Ahmad +3
In this article, we utilize the concept of average controllability in graphs, along with a novel rank encoding method, to enhance the performance of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) in…
