iN2V: Bringing Transductive Node Embeddings to Inductive Graphs

Nicolas Lell, Ansgar Scherp

Shallow node embeddings like node2vec (N2V) can be used for nodes without features or to supplement existing features with structure-based information. Embedding methods like N2V a…

POWN: Prototypical Open-World Node Classification

Marcel Hoffmann, Lukas Galke, Ansgar Scherp

We consider the problem of \textit{true} open-world semi-supervised node classification, in which nodes in a graph either belong to known or new classes, with the latter not presen…

The Split Matters: Flat Minima Methods for Improving the Performance of GNNs

Nicolas Lell, Ansgar Scherp

When training a Neural Network, it is optimized using the available training data with the hope that it generalizes well to new or unseen testing data. At the same absolute value,…
