Graph convolutional networks have been successful in addressing graph-based tasks such as semi-supervised node classification. Existing methods use a network structure defined by the user based on experimentation with fixed number of layers and neurons per layer and employ a layer-wise propagation rule to obtain the node embeddings. Designing an automatic process to define a problem-dependant architecture for graph convolutional networks can greatly help to reduce the need for manual design of the structure of the model in the training process. In this paper, we propose a method to automatically build compact and task-specific graph convolutional networks. Experimental results on widely used publicly available datasets show that the proposed method outperforms related methods based on convolutional graph networks in terms of classification performance and network compactness.
