Learning on graphs is one of the most active research topics in machine learning (ML). Among the key challenges in this field, effectively learning long-range dependencies in graphs has been particularly difficult. It has been observed that, in practice, the performance of many ML approaches, includ…
The success of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) in practice has motivated extensive research on their theoretical properties. This includes recent results that characterise node classifiers expressible by GNNs in terms of first order logic. Most of the analysis, however, has been focused on GNNs with fi…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are often used to learn transformations of graph data. While effective in practice, such approaches make predictions via numeric manipulations so their output cannot be easily explained symbolically. We propose a new family of GNN-based transformations of graph data that…
The aim of knowledge graph (KG) completion is to extend an incomplete KG with missing triples. Popular approaches based on graph embeddings typically work by first representing the KG in a vector space, and then applying a predefined scoring function to the resulting vectors to complete the KG. Thes…
The ability of graph neural networks (GNNs) for distinguishing nodes in graphs has been recently characterized in terms of the Weisfeiler-Lehman (WL) test for checking graph isomorphism. This characterization, however, does not settle the issue of which Boolean node classifiers (i.e., functions clas…
We study the data complexity of reasoning for several fragments of MTL - an extension of Datalog with metric temporal operators over the rational numbers. Reasoning in the full MTL language is PSPACE-complete, which handicaps its application in practice. To achieve tractability we first study the c…
