What are "node embeddings"
DeepWalk, LINE, node2vec, ...
Preserve different properties:
- pairwise distances
- communities
- structural position
Easily answer questions like:
- who is similar to X
- who is X likely to connect to
Twitter users can...
... be tightly connected
... relate through similar interests
... write in similar styles
graph node2vec: \(d_n(u_i, u_j)\)
average user word2vec: \(d_w(u_i, u_j)\)
Questions
-
Create a task-independent representation of network + features
-
What is the dependency between network structure and feature structure
-
Can we capture that dependency in a representation
network—feature dependencies
network—feature independence
Use deep learning to create embeddings
Introduction
Network embeddings → Twitter → network-feature dependencies
Building blocks
Neural networks + Graph convolutions + Auto-encoders
Capture dependencies
by arranging the building blocks together

\(H^{(l+1)} = \sigma(H^{(l)}W^{(l)})\)
\(H^{(0)} = X\)
\(H^{(L)} = Z\)

Graph-convolutional neural networks
\(H^{(l+1)} = \sigma(H^{(l)}W^{(l)})\)
\(H^{(0)} = X\)
\(H^{(L)} = Z\)
\(H^{(l+1)} = \sigma(\color{DarkRed}{\tilde{D}^{-\frac{1}{2}}\tilde{A}\tilde{D}^{-\frac{1}{2}}}H^{(l)}W^{(l)})\)
\(H^{(0)} = X\)
\(H^{(L)} = Z\)

Semi-supervised graph-convolution learning
Four well-marked communities of size 10, small noise
More semi-supervised GCN netflix
Overlapping communities of size 12, small noise
Two feature communities in a near-clique, small noise
Five well-marked communities of size 20, moderate noise
(Variational) Auto-encoders
From blog.keras.io
- Bottleneck compression → creates embeddings
- Flexible training objectives
- Free encoder/decoder architectures
