New Manifold GCN Layers Outperform State-of-the-Art on Graph Data

Researchers have developed new graph neural network layers designed for data residing on Riemannian manifolds. These layers, named Manifold GCN, are based on a diffusion equation and a tangent multilayer perceptron, offering equivariance to node permutations and feature manifold isometries. Initial applications on synthetic data and a real-world Alzheimer's classification task using triangle meshes of the right hippocampus show that these layers outperform existing state-of-the-art networks while being applicable to a broader range of problems.

    Manifold GCN: Diffusion-based Convolutional Neural Network for Manifold-valued Graphs

    arXiv:2401.14381v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We propose two graph neural network layers for graphs with features in a Riemannian manifold. First, based on a manifold-valued graph diffusion equation, we construct a diffusion layer that can be applied to an arbitrary number …
