EPIC: Graph Augmentation with Edit Path Interpolation via Learnable Cost

Graph-based models have become increasingly important in various domains, but the limited size and diversity of existing graph datasets often limit their performance. To address this issue, we propose EPIC (Edit Path Interpolation via learnable Cost), a novel interpolation-based method for augmenting graph datasets. Our approach leverages graph edit distance to generate new graphs that are similar to the original ones but exhibit some variation in their structures. To achieve this, we learn the graph edit distance through a comparison of labeled graphs and utilize this knowledge to create graph edit paths between pairs of original graphs. With randomly sampled graphs from a graph edit path, we enrich the training set to enhance the generalization capability of classification models. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on several benchmark datasets and show that it outperforms existing augmentation methods in graph classification tasks

Low-Voltage Organic Transistors with Carrier Mobilities over 10 cm2V-2s-1 Using Six-Branched Organic Azide

Organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) are essential components for future flexible/wearable electronics. To fabricate OTFTs in an industrial level, following requirements should be met: high carrier mobility, low-voltage operation, compatibility with a reliable high-resolution patterning process, and high mechanical and electrical stability. Here, we report the synthesis of six-branched cross-linkers (6Bx) having an ultrahigh photo-cross-linking efficiency and its application to photo-patterning gate dielectric (GD) polymers and channel semiconducting (CS) polymers in polymer-based OTFTs. The use of 6Bx permits the generation of a high-resolution-patterned ultra-thin polymer gate dielectric with a low leakage current (7 x 10-9 A cm-2 at 1 MV cm-1). Moreover, cross-linking the GD polymer interfaced with p-or n-type CS polymer induces alignment of CS polymer chains at the interface. This yields excellent hole and electron mobilities of 12.42 and 10.11 cm2 V-1s-1, respectively, from p-and n-type OTFTs operated at <3 V, which are remarkably improved carrier mobilities at substantially low operation voltages compared to those by conventional test beds. Further, the fabrication of logic gates and ring oscillators demonstrates the reliability of polymer OTFTs cross-linked with 6Bx. This work presents a universal strategy for high mobility, reliable, and low-voltage operating OTFTs
