ANRL: Attributed Network Representation Learning via Deep Neural Networks.

Network representation learning (RL) aims to transform the nodes in a network into low-dimensional vector spaces while preserving the inherent properties of the network. Though network RL has been intensively studied, most existing works focus on either network structure or node attribute information. In this paper, we propose a novel framework, named ANRL, to incorporate both the network structure and node attribute information in a principled way. Specifically, we propose a neighbor enhancement autoencoder to model the node attribute information, which reconstructs its target neighbors instead of itself. To capture the network structure, attribute-aware skip-gram model is designed based on the attribute encoder to formulate the correlations between each node and its direct or indirect neighbors. We conduct extensive experiments on six real-world networks, including two social networks, two citation networks and two user behavior networks. The results empirically show that ANRL can achieve relatively significant gains in node classification and link prediction tasks.
