Graph Warp Module: an Auxiliary Module for Boosting the Power of Graph Neural Networks.

Recently, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are trending in the machine learning community as a family of architectures that specializes in capturing the features of graph-related datasets, such as those pertaining to social networks and chemical structures. Unlike for other families of the networks, the representation power of GNNs has much room for improvement, and many graph networks to date suffer from the problem of underfitting. In this paper we will introduce a Graph Warp Module, a supernode-based auxiliary network module that can be attached to a wide variety of existing GNNs in order to improve the representation power of the original networks. Through extensive experiments on molecular graph datasets, we will show that our GWM indeed alleviates the underfitting problem for various existing networks, and that it can even help create a network with the state-of-the-art generalization performance.
