Learning Robust Graph Neural Networks with Limited Supervision

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have demonstrated significant success in various graph-related tasks. However, their performance is highly dependent on the availability of sufficient, class-balanced annotated data and an accurate graph structure. GNNs are vulnerable to substantial performance degradation when confronted with limited annotated samples, class imbalance, or noisy graph structures. First, a Dual GNN learning framework is introduced for semi-supervised node classification under limited supervision. The framework comprises two GNN-based node prediction modules: a primary module, which uses the input graph structure to induce standard node embeddings and predictions, and an auxiliary module, which leverages spectral clustering to construct a new graph structure and learn new node embeddings and predictions. These modules collaborate to enable end-to-end learning of discriminative node representations. Next, a graph augmentation method called Graph Dual Mixup (GDM) is proposed for graph classification with scarce labels. GDM employs a graph structural auto-encoder to learn structural embeddings, applying mixup in the learned structural embedding space to generate new graph structures. Additionally, mixup is applied to input node features, generating node features for new graph instances. Together, these generated node features and graph structures contribute new graphs that increase the size and diversity of the labeled dataset, improving classification performance. To enhance robustness against adversarial attacks on graph structures, an Efficient Low-Rank GNN is introduced. This approach learns robust low-rank sparse graph structures through a two-stage process. In the first stage, Singular Value Decomposition is used to estimate a low-rank approximation of the graph structure. This estimate is refined in the second stage by jointly learning a low-rank sparse graph structure alongside the GNN model, resulting in enhanced robustness. Finally, to address class-imbalanced node classification, a Unified GNN Learning (Uni-GNN) framework is proposed. Uni-GNN integrates structural and semantic connectivity representations to extend the propagation of embeddings to non-adjacent structural neighbors and semantically similar nodes, facilitating the diffusion of discriminative information. Additionally, it incorporates a balanced pseudo-label generation mechanism to improve the representations of minority classes. Comprehensive evaluations on benchmark datasets demonstrate that these methods outperform state-of-the-art approaches and hold significant potential for advancing GNN learning with limited supervision.
