Most existing studies solve either the node-wise task or the graph-wise task independently while they are inherently correlated. This work proposes a unified model, AdamGNN, to interactively learn node and graph representations in a mutual-optimisation manner. Compared with existing GNN models and graph pooling methods, AdamGNN enhances the node representation with the learned multi-grained semantics and avoids losing node features and graph structure information during pooling. Specifically, a differentiable pooling operator is proposed to adaptively generate a multi-grained structure that involves meso- and macro-level semantic information in the graph. We also devise the unpooling operator and the flyback aggregator in AdamGNN to better leverage the multi-grained semantics to enhance node representations. The updated node representations can further adjust the graph representation in the next iteration. Experiments on 14 real-world graph datasets show that AdamGNN can significantly outperform 17 competing models on both node- and graph-wise tasks. The ablation studies confirm the effectiveness of AdamGNN's components, and the last empirical analysis further reveals the ingenious ability of AdamGNN in capturing long-range interactions.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.00238v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2010.00238v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"adaptive-multi-grained-graph-neural-networks","repo_url":"https://github.com/zhiqiangzhongddu/AdamGNN","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"representation-learning","task_name":"Representation Learning"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
