Analyzing the Effect of Embedding Norms and Singular Values to Oversmoothing in Graph Neural Networks
Dimitrios Kelesis, Dimitris Fotakis, Georgios Paliouras
In this paper, we study the factors that contribute to the effect of oversmoothing in deep Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). Specifically, our analysis is based on a new metric (Mean A…

Reducing Oversmoothing through Informed Weight Initialization in Graph Neural Networks
Dimitrios Kelesis, Dimitris Fotakis, Georgios Paliouras
In this work, we generalize the ideas of Kaiming initialization to Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and propose a new scheme (G-Init) that reduces oversmoothing, leading to very good r…
Partially Trained Graph Convolutional Networks Resist Oversmoothing
Dimitrios Kelesis, Dimitris Fotakis, Georgios Paliouras
In this work we investigate an observation made by Kipf \& Welling, who suggested that untrained GCNs can generate meaningful node embeddings. In particular, we investigate the eff…
