Regional based query in graph active learning
Roy Abel, yoram louzoun
Graph convolution networks (GCN) have emerged as the leading method to classify node classes in networks, and have reached the highest accuracy in multiple node classification tasks. In the absence of available tagged samples, active learning methods have been developed to obtain the highest accuracy using the minimal number of queries to an oracle. The current best active learning methods use the sample class uncertainty as selection criteria. However, in graph based classification, the class of each node is often related to the class of its neighbors. As such, the uncertainty in the class of a node's neighbor may be a more appropriate selection criterion. We here propose two such criteria, one extending the classical uncertainty measure, and the other extending the page-rank algorithm. We show that the latter is optimal when the fraction of tagged nodes is low, and when this fraction grows to one over the average degree, the regional uncertainty performs better than all existing methods. While we have tested this methods on graphs, such methods can be extended to any classification problem, where a distance metrics can be defined between the input samples.
