Adversarial Attack and Defense on Graph Data: A Survey
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely applied to various applications
including image classification, text generation, audio recognition, and graph
data analysis. However, recent studies have shown that DNNs are vulnerable to
adversarial attacks. Though there are several works studying adversarial attack
and defense strategies on domains such as images and natural language
processing, it is still difficult to directly transfer the learned knowledge to
graph structure data due to its representation challenges. Given the importance
of graph analysis, an increasing number of works start to analyze the
robustness of machine learning models on graph data. Nevertheless, current
studies considering adversarial behaviors on graph data usually focus on
specific types of attacks with certain assumptions. In addition, each work
proposes its own mathematical formulation which makes the comparison among
different methods difficult. Therefore, in this paper, we aim to survey
existing adversarial learning strategies on graph data and first provide a
unified formulation for adversarial learning on graph data which covers most
adversarial learning studies on graph. Moreover, we also compare different
attacks and defenses on graph data and discuss their corresponding
contributions and limitations. In this work, we systemically organize the
considered works based on the features of each topic. This survey not only
serves as a reference for the research community, but also brings a clear image
researchers outside this research domain. Besides, we also create an online
resource and keep updating the relevant papers during the last two years. More

edge2vec: Representation learning using edge semantics for biomedical knowledge discovery
Representation learning provides new and powerful graph analytical approaches
and tools for the highly valued data science challenge of mining knowledge
graphs. Since previous graph analytical methods have mostly focused on
homogeneous graphs, an important current challenge is extending this
methodology for richly heterogeneous graphs and knowledge domains. The
biomedical sciences are such a domain, reflecting the complexity of biology,
with entities such as genes, proteins, drugs, diseases, and phenotypes, and
relationships such as gene co-expression, biochemical regulation, and
biomolecular inhibition or activation. Therefore, the semantics of edges and
nodes are critical for representation learning and knowledge discovery in real
world biomedical problems. In this paper, we propose the edge2vec model, which
represents graphs considering edge semantics. An edge-type transition matrix is
trained by an Expectation-Maximization approach, and a stochastic gradient
descent model is employed to learn node embedding on a heterogeneous graph via
the trained transition matrix. edge2vec is validated on three biomedical domain
tasks: biomedical entity classification, compound-gene bioactivity prediction,
and biomedical information retrieval. Results show that by considering
edge-types into node embedding learning in heterogeneous graphs,
\textbf{edge2vec}\ significantly outperforms state-of-the-art models on all
three tasks. We propose this method for its added value relative to existing
graph analytical methodology, and in the real world context of biomedical
knowledge discovery applicability.Comment: 10 page
