摘要

Graph analysis has become much more efficient and expressive due to the Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). However, traditional GNNs often face challenges such as oversmoothing feature sparsity and global structural sensitivity. The Distance-Driven Graph Neural Network (DDGNN) is a new method introduced in this paper that makes the representation of node features better by using marker nodes that are picked at random and in strategic way to find the shortest paths. With these marker nodes, DDGNN effectively stops features from becoming too smooth while keeping their uniqueness across multiple layers. It also encodes the global structural information explicitly. The experimental results indicate that DDGNN keeps its high level of classification accuracy at deeper levels with little performance loss. Compared to standard GNN architectures, DDGNN achieves a performance improvement of 1.5% on CORA and CiteSeer and 3% on PubMed. The model’s robustness and ability to generalize have been tested across a number of hyperparameter settings and two dataset splits (public and complete). These findings show that DDGNN has the potential to handle complex graph structures while greatly improving the accuracy of node classification and the expressiveness of models.
