Course plan

No of lectures

Depending on the number of participants, there will be around 10 meetings.

Recommended for

PhD students who want to get a better understanding of different neural network architectures for graph inputs.

Goals

The aim of the course is to get a good understanding of the available neural network architectures that are suited of graph inputs. We want to understand the expressive power and limitations of different architectures and see how such networks can be applied in the context of symbolic reasoning methods.

Prerequisites

A solid background in computer science, machine learning, and complexity theory is beneficial.

Organization

The course is run as a weekly seminar in which one participant presents a paper and leads a following discussion on the topic.

Content

In this seminar, we cover different neural-network architectures for learning using graph representations. This includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN)
Graph Neural Networks (GNN)
Message-Passing Neural Networks (MPNN)
Graph Transformer Architectures
Expressive Power of different Architectures
Applications in Symbolic Reasoning

Literature

A selection of recent papers will be provided on the course webpage.

Examination

Presentation of a research article, possibly including some coding examples, leading the discussion on the presented topic, active participation in seminar discussions.

Examiner

Daniel Gnad
