A scalable parallel gensim implementation of Learning Role-based Graph Embeddings (IJCAI 2018).


Abstract

Random walks are at the heart of many existing network embedding methods. However, such algorithms have many limitations that arise from the use of random walks, e.g., the features resulting from these methods are unable to transfer to new nodes and graphs as they are tied to vertex identity. In this work, we introduce the Role2Vec framework which uses the flexible notion of attributed random walks, and serves as a basis for generalizing existing methods such as DeepWalk, node2vec, and many others that leverage random walks. Our proposed framework enables these methods to be more widely applicable for both transductive and inductive learning as well as for use on graphs with attributes (if available). This is achieved by learning functions that generalize to new nodes and graphs. We show that our proposed framework is effective with an average AUC improvement of 16.55% while requiring on average 853x less space than existing methods on a variety of graphs.

The second-order random walk sampling methods were taken from the reference implementation of Node2vec.

The model is now also available in the package Karate Club.

This repository provides an implementation of Role2Vec as described in the paper:

Requirements

The codebase is implemented in Python 3.5.2. package versions used for development are just below.

networkx          2.4
tqdm              4.28.1
numpy             1.15.4
pandas            0.23.4
texttable         1.5.0
scipy             1.1.0
argparse          1.1.0
gensim            3.6.0
scikit-learn      0.20.0

Datasets

The code takes the **edge list** of the graph in a csv file. Every row indicates an edge between two nodes separated by a comma. The first row is a header. Nodes should be indexed starting with 0. A sample graph for `Cora` is included in the `input/` directory.

Training the model is handled by the `src/main.py` script which provides the following command line arguments.

Input and output options

  --graph-input      STR   Input graph path.   Default is `input/cora_edges.csv`.
  --output           STR   Embeddings path.    Default is `output/cora_role2vec.csv`.
