Deep Learning on Graphs: Methods and Applications (DLG-AAAI’23)

Abstract

Deep Learning models are at the core of research in Artificial Intelligence research today. It is well- known that deep learning techniques that were disruptive for Euclidean data such as images or sequence data such as text are not immediately applicable to graph-structured data. This gap has driven a tide in research for deep learning on graphs on various tasks such as graph representation learning, graph generation, and graph classification. New neural network architectures on graph-structured data have achieved remarkable performance in these tasks when applied to domains such as social networks, bioinformatics and medical informatics. This one-day workshop aims to bring together both academic researchers and industrial practitioners from different backgrounds and perspectives to the above challenges. The workshop will consist of contributed talks, contributed posters, and invited talks on a wide variety of the methods and applications. Work-in-progress papers, demos, and visionary papers are also welcome. This workshop intends to share visions of investigating new approaches and methods at the intersection of Graph Neural Networks and real-world applications. It aims to bring together both academic researchers and industrial practitioners from different backgrounds to discuss a wide range of topics of emerging importance for GNN.
