GNNs for Regression: Deep Convolutional Models Outperform Attention-Based Architectures

A new research paper explores the effectiveness of Graph Neural Network (GNN) message-passing techniques specifically for regression tasks, an area often overshadowed by classification benchmarks. The study investigates various GNN architectures, including deep convolutional GNNs like GEN and attention-based GNNs, across different regression contexts such as rank ordering and error minimization. Findings indicate that deep convolutional GNNs, particularly GEN, demonstrate superior performance in these regression tasks compared to attention-based models, while certain classical GNNs remain competitive and efficient. AI

IMPACT Highlights the under-explored potential of GNNs in regression tasks, suggesting specific architectures like GEN may be more suitable than attention-based models.
