- Description: Subnetwork identification plays a significant role in analyzing, managing, and comprehending the structure and functions in big networks. Numerous approaches have been proposed to solve the problem of subnetwork identification as well as community detection. Most of the methods focus on detecting communities by considering node attributes, edge information, or both. This study focuses on discovering subnetworks containing researchers with similar or related areas of interest or research topics. A topic- aware subnetwork identification is essential to discover potential researchers on particular research topics and provide qualitywork. Thus, we propose a topic-based optimal subnetwork identification approach (TOSNet). Based on some fundamental characteristics, this paper addresses the following problems: 1)How to discover topic-based subnetworks with a vigorous collaboration intensity? 2) How to rank the discovered subnetworks and single out one optimal subnetwork? We evaluate the performance of the proposed method against baseline methods by adopting the modularity measure, assess the accuracy based on the size of the identified subnetworks, and check the scalability for different sizes of benchmark networks. The experimental findings indicate that our approach shows excellent performance in identifying contextual subnetworks that maintain intensive collaboration amongst researchers for a particular research topic. © 2020 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc..

- Description: Network representation learning (NRL) is an effective graph analytics technique and promotes users to deeply understand the hidden characteristics of graph data. It has been successfully applied in many real-world tasks related to network science, such as social network data processing, biological information processing, and recommender systems. Deep Learning is a powerful tool to learn data features. However, it is non-trivial to generalize deep learning to graph-structured data since it is different from the regular data such as pictures having spatial information and sounds having temporal information. Recently, researchers proposed many deep learning-based methods in the area of NRL. In this survey, we investigate classical NRL from traditional feature learning method to the deep learning-based model, analyze relationships between them, and summarize the latest progress. Finally, we discuss open issues considering NRL and point out the future directions in this field. © 2020 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.. All rights reserved.

- Description: Mental health issues can lead to serious consequences like depression, self-mutilation, and worse, especially for university students who are not physically and mentally mature. Not all students with poor mental health are aware of their situation and actively seek help. Proactive detection of mental problems is a critical step in addressing this issue. However, accurate detections are hard to achieve due to the inherent complexity and heterogeneity of unstructured multi-modal data generated by campus life. Against this background, we propose a detection framework for detecting students' mental health, named CASTLE (educational data fusion for mental health detection). Three parts are involved in this framework. First, we utilize representation learning to fuse data on social life, academic performance, and physical appearance. An algorithm, named MOON (multi-view social network embedding), is proposed to represent students' social life in a comprehensive way by fusing students' heterogeneous social relations effectively. Second, a synthetic minority oversampling technique algorithm (SMOTE) is applied to the label imbalance issue. Finally, a DNN (deep neural network) model is utilized for the final detection. The extensive results demonstrate the promising performance of the proposed methods in comparison to an extensive range of state-of-the-art baselines. © 2013 IEEE.

- Description: Graph neural networks (GNNs) have demonstrated a remarkable ability in the task of semi-supervised node classification. However, most existing GNNs suffer from the nonrobustness issues, which poses a great challenge for applying GNNs into sensitive scenarios. Some researchers concentrate on constructing an ensemble model to mitigate the nonrobustness issues. Nevertheless, these methods ignore the interaction among base models, leading to similar graph representations. Moreover, due to the deterministic propagation applied in most existing GNNs, each node highly relies on its neighbors, leaving the nodes to be sensitive to perturbations. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel framework of graph ensemble learning based on knowledge passing (called GEL) to address the above issues. In order to achieve interaction, we consider the predictions of prior models as knowledge to obtain more reliable predictions. Moreover, we design a multilayer DropNode propagation strategy to reduce each node’s dependence on particular neighbors. This strategy also empowers each node to aggregate information from diverse neighbors, alleviating oversmoothing issues. We conduct experiments on three benchmark datasets, including Cora, Citeseer, and Pubmed. GEL outperforms GCN by more than 5% in terms of accuracy across all three datasets and also performs better than other state-of-the-art baselines. Extensive experimental results also show that the GEL alleviates the nonrobustness and oversmoothing issues. © 2022 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.

- Description: Among the most disabling disorders, mental illness is one that affects millions of people across the world. Although a great deal of research has been done to prevent mental disorders, detecting mental illness in potential patients remains a considerable challenge. This paper proposes a novel metaphor-based approach (MAM) to determine whether a social media user has a mental disorder or not by classifying social media texts. We observe that the social media texts posted by people with mental illness often contain many implicit emotions that metaphors can express. Therefore, we extract these texts’ metaphor features as the primary indicator for the text classification task. Our approach firstly proposes a CNN-RNN (Convolution Neural Network - Recurrent Neural Network) framework to enable the representations of long texts. The metaphor features are then applied to the attention mechanism for achieving the metaphorical emotions-based mental illness detection. Subsequently, compared with other works, our approach achieves creative results in the detection of mental illnesses. The recall scores of MAM on depression, anorexia, and suicide detection are the highest, with 0.50, 0.70, and 0.65, respectively. Furthermore, MAM has the best F1 scores on depression and anorexia detection tasks, with 0.51 and 0.71. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
