Particle Competition and Cooperation for Robust Graph Convolutional Network Learning Under Label Noise

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

Particle Competition and Cooperation for Robust Graph Convolutional Network Learning Under Label Noise proposes PCC+GCN, a hybrid framework that refines labels using Particle Competition and Cooperation before training a GCN. PCC identifies suspicious nodes via particle domination dynamics and decides whether to keep, remove, or reassign their labels, optionally augmenting the graph with k‑nearest‑neighbor edges. Evaluated on ten NoisyGL datasets under various noise types, PCC+GCN achieved the highest average accuracy and rank, outperforming baseline GCN by 1.67 percentage points and proving computationally efficient, especially under instance‑dependent noise.

DeGLIF for Label Noise Robust Node Classification using GNNs

The paper introduces DeGLIF, a denoising method for graph data that leverages a leave‑one‑out influence function to make node‑level predictions robust to label noise. DeGLIF uses a small clean subset and a theoretically motivated relabelling function to identify and correct noisy nodes without requiring knowledge of the noise model or level. Two variants of DeGLIF are proposed, one of which is proven to increase risk for detected noisy points, and experiments demonstrate that DeGLIF outperforms baseline algorithms on several datasets.
