Heterogeneous Graph Based Neural Network for Social Recommendations with Balanced Random Walk InitializationSalamat, Amirreza 12 1900 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Research on social networks and understanding the interactions of the users can be modeled as a task of graph mining, such as predicting nodes and edges in networks. Dealing with such unstructured data in large social networks has been a challenge for researchers in several years. Neural Networks have recently proven very successful in performing predictions on number of speech, image, and text data and have become the de facto method when dealing with such data in a large volume. Graph NeuralNetworks, however, have only recently become mature enough to be used in real large-scale graph prediction tasks, and require proper structure and data modeling to be viable and successful. In this research, we provide a new modeling of the social network which captures the attributes of the nodes from various dimensions. We also introduce the Neural Network architecture that is required for optimally utilizing the new data structure. Finally, in order to provide a hot-start for our model, we initialize the weights of the neural network using a pre-trained graph embedding method. We have also developed a new graph embedding algorithm. We will first explain how previous graph embedding methods are not optimal for all types of graphs, and then provide a solution on how to combat those limitations and come up with a new graph embedding method.

Robustness of Neural Networks for Discrete Input: An Adversarial PerspectiveEbrahimi, Javid 30 April 2019 (has links)
In the past few years, evaluating on adversarial examples has become a standard
procedure to measure robustness of deep learning models. Literature on adversarial
examples for neural nets has largely focused on image data, which are represented as
points in continuous space. However, a vast proportion of machine learning models
operate on discrete input, and thus demand a similar rigor in understanding their
vulnerabilities and robustness. We study robustness of neural network architectures
for textual and graph inputs, through the lens of adversarial input perturbations.
We will cover methods for both attacks and defense; we will focus on 1) addressing
challenges in optimization for creating adversarial perturbations for discrete data;
2) evaluating and contrasting white-box and black-box adversarial examples; and 3)
proposing efficient methods to make the models robust against adversarial attacks.

Graph Based Machine Learning approaches and Clustering in a Customer Relationship Management SettingDelissen, Johan January 2020 (has links)
This master thesis investigates the utilisation of various graph based machine learning models for solving a customer segmentation problem, a task coupled to Customer Relationship Management, where the objective is to divide customers into different groups based on similar attributes. More specifically a customer segmentation problem is solved via an unsupervised machine learning technique named clustering, using the k-means clustering algorithm. Three different representations of customers as a vector of attributes are created and then utilised by the k-means algorithm to divide users into different clusters. The first representation is using a elementary feature vector and the other two approaches are using feature vectors produced by graph based machine learning models. Results show that similar grouping are found but that results vary depending on what data is included in the instantiation and training of the various approaches and their corresponding models.

A Survey of Graph Neural Networks on Synthetic DataCarson, Brigham Stone 18 April 2023 (has links) (PDF)
We relate properties of attributed random graph models to the performance of GNN architectures. We identify regimes where GNNs outperform feedforward neural networks and non-attributed graph clustering methods. We compare GNN performance on our synthetic benchmark to performance on popular real-world datasets. We analyze the theoretical foundations for weak recovery in GNNs for popular one- and two-layer architectures. We obtain an explicit formula for the performance of a 1-layer GNN, and we obtain useful insights on how to proceed in the 2-layer case. Finally, we improve the bound for a notable result on the GNN size generalization problem by 1.

Learning 3D structures for protein function predictionMuttakin, Md Nurul 05 1900 (has links)
Machine learning models such as AlphaFold can generate protein 3D conformation
from primary sequence up to experimental accuracy, which gives rise to a
bunch of research works to predict protein functions from 3D structures. Almost
all of these works attempted to use graph neural networks (GNN) to learn 3D
structures of proteins from 2D contact maps/graphs. Most of these works use
rich 1D features such as ESM and LSTM embedding in addition to the contact
graph. These rich 1D features essentially obfuscate the learning capability
of GNNs. In this thesis, we evaluate the learning capabilities of GCNs from
contact map graphs in the existing framework, where we attempt to incorporate
distance information for better predictive performance. We found that GCNs fall
far short with 1D-CNN without language models, even with distance information.
Consequently, we further investigate the capabilities of GCNs to distinguish subgraph
patterns corresponding to the InterPro domains. We found that GCNs
perform better than highly rich sequence embedding with MLP in recognizing
the structural patterns. Finally, we investigate the capability of GCNs to predict
GO-terms (functions) individually. We found that GCNs perform almost
on par in identifying GO-terms in the presence of only hard positive and hard
negative examples. We also identified some GO-terms indistinguishable by GCNs
and ESM2-based MLP models. This gives rise to new research questions to be
investigated by future works.

Predicting Protein Functions From Interactions Using Neural Networks and OntologiesQathan, Shahad 22 November 2022 (has links)
To understand the process of life, it is crucial for us to study proteins and
their functions. Proteins execute (almost) all cellular activities, and their functions are standardized by Gene Ontology (GO). The amount of discovered protein sequences grows rapidly as a consequence of the fast rate of development of
technologies in gene sequencing. In UniProtKB, there are more than 200 million
proteins. Still, less than 1% of the proteins in the UniProtKB database are experimentally GO-annotated, which is the result of the exorbitant cost of biological
experiments. To minimize the large gap, developing an efficient and effective
method for automatic protein function prediction (AFP) is essential.
Many approaches have been proposed to solve the AFP problem. Still, these
methods suffer from limitations in the way the knowledge of the domain is presented and what type of knowledge is included. In this work, we formulate the
task of AFP as an entailment problem and exploit the structure of the related
knowledge in a set and reusable framework. To achieve this goal, we construct a
knowledge base of formal GO axioms and protein-protein interactions to use as
background knowledge for AFP. Our experiments show that the approach proposed here, which allows for ontology awareness, improves results for AFP of
proteins; they also show the importance of including protein-protein interactions for predicting the functions of proteins.

A Graph Convolutional Neural Network Based Approach for Object Tracking Using Augmented Detections With Optical FlowPapakis, Ioannis 18 May 2021 (has links)
This thesis presents a novel method for online Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) using Graph Convolutional Neural Network (GCNN) based feature extraction and end-to-end feature matching for object association. The Graph based approach incorporates both appearance and geometry of objects at past frames as well as the current frame into the task of feature learning. This new paradigm enables the network to leverage the "contextual" information of the geometry of objects and allows us to model the interactions among the features of multiple objects. Another central innovation of the proposed framework is the use of the Sinkhorn algorithm for end-to-end learning of the associations among objects during model training. The network is trained to predict object associations by taking into account constraints specific to the MOT task. Additionally, in order to increase the sensitivity of the object detector, a new approach is presented that propagates previous frame detections into each new frame using optical flow. These are treated as added object proposals which are then classified as objects. A new traffic monitoring dataset is also provided, which includes naturalistic video footage from current infrastructure cameras in Virginia Beach City with a variety of vehicle density and environment conditions. Experimental evaluation demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed approaches on the provided dataset and the popular MOT Challenge Benchmark. / Master of Science / This thesis presents a novel method for Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) in videos, with the main goal of associating objects between frames. The proposed method is based on a Deep Neural Network Architecture operating on a Graph Structure. The Graph based approach makes it possible to use both appearance and geometry of detected objects to retrieve high level information about their characteristics and interaction. The framework includes the Sinkhorn algorithm, which can be embedded in the training phase to satisfy MOT constraints, such as the 1 to 1 matching between previous and new objects. Another approach is also proposed to improve the sensitivity of the object detector by using previous frame detections as a guide to detect objects in each new frame, resulting in less missed objects. Alongside the new methods, a new dataset is also provided which includes naturalistic video footage from current infrastructure cameras in Virginia Beach City with a variety of vehicle density and environment conditions. Experimental evaluation demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed approaches on the provided dataset and the popular MOT Challenge Benchmark.

Geometric Deep Learning for Healthcare ApplicationsKarwande, Gaurang Ajit 06 June 2023 (has links)
This thesis explores the application of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), a subset of Geometric Deep Learning methods, for medical image analysis and causal structure learning.
Tracking the progression of pathologies in chest radiography poses several challenges in anatomical motion estimation and image registration as this task requires spatially aligning the sequential X-rays and modelling temporal dynamics in change detection. The first part of this thesis proposes a novel approach for change detection in sequential Chest X-ray (CXR) scans using GNNs. The proposed model CheXRelNet utilizes local and global information in CXRs by incorporating intra-image and inter-image anatomical information and showcases an increased downstream performance for predicting the change direction for a pair of CXRs.
The second part of the thesis focuses on using GNNs for causal structure learning. The proposed method introduces the concept of intervention on graphs and attempts to relate belief propagation in Bayesian Networks (BN) to message passing in GNNs. Specifically, the proposed method leverages the downstream prediction accuracy of a GNN-based model to infer the correctness of Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) structures given observational data. Our experimental results do not reveal any correlation between the downstream prediction accuracy of GNNs and structural correctness and hence indicate the harms of directly relating message passing in GNNs to belief propagation in BNs. Overall, this thesis demonstrates the potential of GNNs in medical image analysis and highlights the challenges and limitations of applying GNNs to causal structure learning. / Master of Science / Graphs are a powerful way to represent different real-world data such as interactions between patient observations, co-morbidities, treatments, and relationships between different parts of the human anatomy. They are also a simple and intuitive way of representing causeand- effect relationships between related entities. Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are neural networks that model such graph-structured data. In this thesis, we explore the applicability of GNNs in analyzing chest radiography and in learning causal relationships. In the first part of this thesis, we propose a method for monitoring disease progression over time in sequential chest X-rays (CXRs). This proposed model CheXRelNet focuses on the interactions within different regions of a CXR and temporal interactions between the same region compared in two CXRs taken at different times for a given patient and accurately predicts the disease progression trend. In the second part of the thesis, we explore if GNNs can be used for identifying causal relationships between covariates. We design a method that uses GNNs for ranking different graph structures based on how well the structures explain the observed data.

Predicting safe drug combinations with Graph Neural Networks (GNN)Amanzadi, Amirhossein January 2021 (has links)
Many people - especially during their elderly - consume multiple drugs for the treatment of complex or co-existing diseases. Identifying side effects caused by polypharmacy is crucial for reducing mortality and morbidity of the patients which will lead to improvement in their quality of life. Since there is immense space for possible drug combinations, it is infeasible to examine them entirely in the lab. In silico models can offer a convenient solution, however, due to the lack of a sufficient amount of homogenous data it is difficult to develop both reliable and scalable models in its ability to accurately predict Polypharmacy Side Effect. Recent advancement in the field of representational learning has utilized the power of graph networks to harmonize information from the heterogeneous biological databases and interactomes. This thesis takes advantage of those techniques and incorporates them with the state-of-the-art Graph Neural Network algorithms to implement a Deep learning pipeline capable of predicting the Adverse Drug Reaction of any given paired drug combinations.
