Semi-Supervised Learning on Graphs with Feature-Augmented Graph Basis Functions (2003.07646v1)

Abstract: For semi-supervised learning on graphs, we study how initial kernels in a supervised learning regime can be augmented with additional information from known priors or from unsupervised learning outputs. These augmented kernels are constructed in a simple update scheme based on the Schur-Hadamard product of the kernel with additional feature kernels. As generators of the positive definite kernels we will focus on graph basis functions (GBF) that allow to include geometric information of the graph via the graph Fourier transform. Using a regularized least squares (RLS) approach for machine learning, we will test the derived augmented kernels for the classification of data on graphs.
