Hierarchical glocal attention pooling for graph classification
No full textGraph pooling is an essential operation in Graph Neural Networks that reduces the size of an input graph while preserving its core structural properties. Existing pooling methods find a compressed representation considering the Global Topological Structures (e.g., cliques, stars, clusters) or Local information at node level (e.g., top-informative nodes). However, an effective graph pooling method does not hierarchically integrate both Global and Local graph properties. To this end, we propose a dual-fold Hierarchical Global Local Attention Pooling (HGLA-Pool) layer that exploits the aforementioned graph properties, generating more robust graph representations. Exhaustive experiments on nine publicly available graph classification benchmarks under standard metrics show that HGLA-Pool significantly outperforms eleven state-of-the-art models on seven datasets while being on par for the remaining two
Community-hop : enhancing node classification through community preference
Full text linkIn recent years, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have demonstrated significant influence on the analysis of graph structures by leveraging message-passing mechanisms to aggregate neighborhood information and perform various graph-related tasks from node classification to link prediction. Recently, GNNs have mostly been developed to deal with different types of graph structures, such as homophily (similar labels among connected nodes) and heterophily (dissimilar labels among connected nodes). However, existing methods lack the ability to combine node features and graph topology optimally to deal with heterophily. This paper proposes a Community-HOP-based GNN model for dealing with homophilic and heterophilic graph structures. Specifically, we incorporate valuable insights from the graph community structure to guide the feature aggregation process of the GNN layer to learn diverse graph properties and improve performance on node-level tasks. Extensive experiments
on six node-level datasets under standard metrics demonstrate that the Community-HOP method surpasses existing baselines
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Structured (De)composable Representations Trained with Neural Networks
No full textThis paper proposes a novel technique for representing templates and instances of concept classes. A template representation refers to the generic representation that captures the characteristics of an entire class. The proposed technique uses end-to-end deep learning to learn structured and composable representations from input images and discrete labels. The obtained representations are based on distance estimates between the distributions given by the class label and those given by contextual information, which are modeled as environments. We prove that the representations have a clear structure allowing decomposing the representation into factors that represent classes and environments. We evaluate our novel technique on classification and retrieval tasks involving different modalities (visual and language data). In various experiments, we show how the representations can be compressed and how different hyperparameters impact performance.sponsorship: This work was partly supported by the FWO and SNSF, Grants G078618N and #176004, as well as an ERC Advanced Grant, #788506.

Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
