Structure fusion based on graph convolutional networks for semi-supervised classification

Suffering from the multi-view data diversity and complexity for semi-supervised classification, most of existing graph convolutional networks focus on the networks architecture construction or the salient graph structure preservation, and ignore the the complete graph structure for semi-supervised classification contribution. To mine the more complete distribution structure from multi-view data with the consideration of the specificity and the commonality, we propose structure fusion based on graph convolutional networks (SF-GCN) for improving the performance of semi-supervised classification. SF-GCN can not only retain the special characteristic of each view data by spectral embedding, but also capture the common style of multi-view data by distance metric between multi-graph structures. Suppose the linear relationship between multi-graph structures, we can construct the optimization function of structure fusion model by balancing the specificity loss and the commonality loss. By solving this function, we can simultaneously obtain the fusion spectral embedding from the multi-view data and the fusion structure as adjacent matrix to input graph convolutional networks for semi-supervised classification. Experiments demonstrate that the performance of SF-GCN outperforms that of the state of the arts on three challenging datasets, which are Cora,Citeseer and Pubmed in citation networks

A novel wind power prediction model using graph attention networks and bi-directional deep learning long and short term memory

Today, integrating wind energy forecasting is an important area of research due to the erratic nature of wind. To achieve this goal, we propose a new model of wind speed prediction based on graph attention networks (GAT), we added a new attention mechanism and a learnable adjacency matrix to the GAT structure to obtain attention scores for each weather variable. The results of the GAT-based model are merged with the bi-directional deep learning long and short-term memory (BiLSTM) layer to take advantage of the geographic and temporal properties of historical weather data. The experiments and analyzes are carried out using precise meteorological data collected from wind farms in the Moroccan city of Tetouan. We show that the proposed model can learn complex input-output correlations of meteorological data more efficiently than previous wind speed prediction algorithms. Due to the resulting attention weights, the model also provides more information about the main weather factors for the evaluated forecast work
