DeSCo: Towards Generalizable and Scalable Deep Subgraph Counting

원문 초록

We introduce DeSCo, a scalable neural deep subgraph counting pipeline, designed to accurately predict both the count and occurrence position of queries on target graphs post single training. Firstly, DeSCo uses a novel canonical partition and divides the large target graph into small neighborhood graphs, greatly reducing the count variation while guaranteeing no missing or double-counting. Secondly, neighborhood counting uses an expressive subgraph-based heterogeneous graph neural network to accurately count in each neighborhood. Finally, gossip propagation propagates neighborhood counts with learnable gates to harness the inductive biases of motif counts. DeSCo is evaluated on eight real-world datasets from various domains. It outperforms state-of-the-art neural methods with 137x improvement in the mean squared error of count prediction, while maintaining the polynomial runtime complexity.
