2. We take a deep look into graph contrastive learning and find that data-centric properties known to be crucial to the success of visual CL can fail to hold for graph CL. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2208.02810 @puja_computes @lastgoodcaesar @EkdeepL @danaikoutra

Our fourth tutorial is held by Mark Andrew Heimann, Junchen Jin and Danai Koutra (@danaikoutra). The tutorial is about +++ Network Embedding for Role Discovery: Concepts, Tools, and Applications +++. Link: markheimann.github.io/tutori…

Thanks @tangjiliang for sharing this interesting and thought-provoking work. In light of these new findings, we revisit the problem of heterophily for GNNs and discuss the reasons behind the seemingly different takeaways from different works. Check it out: jiongzhu.net/revisiting-hete…
GNNs are widely believed to work well due to the homophily assumption and recent works design new architectures to overcome such heterophily-related limitations. Is Homophily a Necessity for Graph Neural Networks? the answer is in our new preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2106.06134

efficient structural embeddings for weighted and directed networks, with focus on email networks and professional role inference; and @cbelth talking about when it's worth embedding higher-order networks and when it's not useful to do so. #michiganAI #GoBlue #kdd2019 #gemslab

The streak of blowaway presentations by @michigan_AI researchers continues with Mark Heimann's "REGAL: Representation Learning-based Graph Alignment". Fun fact: Mark is a world renowned chess player, holding multiple national championships and titles.

Prof. Danai Koutra's GEMS lab introduced a new hash-based network alignment algorithm, 2x faster & 20-50% more effective than previous algorithms. A true new gem! More on it in a recently accepted PAKDD paper, jointly with Mark Heimann & collaborators. tinyurl.com/y958fug4

A tie tonight against @MiamiProChess clinches the second seed in the #prochess Atlantic Division. We've got another date with @stlarchbishops next Tuesday night in the first round of the 2018 @PROChessLeague playoffs! #nervesofsteel

FM Mark Heimann, just in with ANOTHER GM win, this time against Julio Becerra! Pittsburgh is up 7-6 in the middle of a very tight last round against Miami.

Pittsburgh is solid against a 3-grandmaster Miami lineup, finishing the first round, 2.5-1.5. Shoutout to Mark Heimann, who in his debut records a nice win against GM Yuniesky Quesada Perez!
