Title: Graph Pooling by Edge Cut. Abstract: Graph neural networks (GNNs) are very efficient at solving several tasks in graphs such as node classification or graph classification. They come from an adaptation of convolutional neural networks on images to graph structured data. These models are very effective at finding patterns in images that can discriminate images from each others. Another aspect leading to their success is their ability to uncover hierarchical structures. This comes from the pooling operation that produces different versions of the input image at different scales. The same way, we want to identify patterns at different scales in graphs in order to improve the classification accuracy. Compared to the case of images, it is not trivial to develop a pooling layer on graphs. This is mainly due to the fact that in graphs nodes are not ordered and have irregular neighborhoods. To aleviate this issue, we propose a pooling layer based on edge cuts in graphs. This pooling layer works by computing edge scores that correspond to the importance of edges in the process of information propagation of the GNN. Moreover, we define a regularization function that aims at producing edge scores that minimize the minCUT problem. Finally, through extensive experiments we show that this architecture can compete with state-of- the-art methods.
