A Capsule Network-based Model for Learning Node Embeddings
share
In this paper, we focus on learning low-dimensional embeddings of entity nodes from graph-structured data, where we can use the learned node embeddings for a downstream task of node classification. Existing node embedding models often suffer from a limitation of exploiting graph information to infer plausible embeddings of unseen nodes. To address this issue, we propose Caps2NE—a new unsupervised embedding model using a network of two capsule layers. Given a target node and its context nodes, Caps2NE applies a routing process to aggregate features of the context nodes at the first capsule layer, then feed these features into the second capsule layer to produce an embedding vector. This embedding vector is then used to infer a plausible embedding for the target node. Experimental results for the node classification task on six well-known benchmark datasets show that our Caps2NE obtains state-of-the-art performances.
