ModTGCN enhances text classification with modularity-aware graph networks

Researchers have developed ModTGCN, a novel graph neural network designed to enhance text classification by incorporating modularity awareness. This approach optimizes both standard cross-entropy loss and an auxiliary modularity-based objective, which encourages the formation of class-coherent document communities within semantic graphs. To improve efficiency, ModTGCN decouples the graph into document-word and word-word components, resulting in training speeds two to ten times faster. Experiments on five benchmarks demonstrated consistent performance gains, particularly on datasets with lower homophily. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more accurate and efficient text classification models by better leveraging document structure.

    ModTGCN: Modularity-aware Graph Neural Networks for Text Classification

    arXiv:2606.23694v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph-based text classification models typically rely on local neighborhood aggregation and overlook global community structure, despite semantic document graphs exhibiting strong class-consistent clustering. Ignoring this can blur …
