Rapid advancement in machine learning is increasing the demand for effective graph data analysis. However, real-world graph data often exhibits class imbalance, leading to poor performance of standard machine learning models on underrepresented classes. To address this,Class-ImbalancedLearning onGraphs (CILG) has emerged as a promising solution that combines graph representation learning and class-imbalanced learning. This survey provides a comprehensive understanding of CILG’s current state-of-the-art, establishing the first systematic taxonomy of existing work and its connections to traditional imbalanced learning. We critically analyze recent advances and discuss key open problems. A continuously updated reading list of relevant articles and code implementations is available athttps://github.com/yihongma/CILG-Papers. 

Molecular representation learning (MRL) is a key step to build the connection between machine learning and chemical science. In particular, it encodes molecules as numerical vectors preserving the molecular structures and features, on top of which the downstream tasks (e.g., property prediction) can be performed. Recently, MRL has achieved considerable progress, especially in methods based on deep molecular graph learning. In this survey, we systematically review these graph-based molecular representation techniques, especially the methods incorporating chemical domain knowledge. Specifically, we first introduce the features of 2D and 3D molecular graphs. Then we summarize and categorize MRL methods into three groups based on their input. Furthermore, we discuss some typical chemical applications supported by MRL. To facilitate studies in this fast-developing area, we also list the benchmarks and commonly used datasets in the paper. Finally, we share our thoughts on future research directions. 

Most graph neural network models learn embeddings of nodes in static attributed graphs for predictive analysis. Recent attempts have been made to learn temporal proximity of the nodes. We find that real dynamic attributed graphs exhibit complex phenomenon of co-evolution between node attributes and graph structure. Learning node embeddings for forecasting change of node attributes and evolution of graph structure over time remains an open problem. In this work, we present a novel framework called CoEvoGNN for modeling dynamic attributed graph sequence. It preserves the impact of earlier graphs on the current graph by embedding generation through the sequence of attributed graphs. It has a temporal self-attention architecture to model long-range dependencies in the evolution. Moreover, CoEvoGNN optimizes model parameters jointly on two dynamic tasks, attribute inference and link prediction over time. So the model can capture the co-evolutionary patterns of attribute change and link formation. This framework can adapt to any graph neural algorithms so we implemented and investigated three methods based on it: CoEvoGCN, CoEvoGAT, and CoEvoSAGE. Experiments demonstrate the framework (and its methods) outperforms strong baseline methods on predicting an entire unseen graph snapshot of personal attributes and interpersonal links in dynamic social graphs and financial graphs.
