The proposed Node-Specific Layer Aggregation and Filtration architecture, termed NoSAF, is designed to overcome two challenges hindering Graph Neural Networks’ (GNNs) deployment on devices. Firstly, most existing GNNs are shallow due to over-smoothing and gradient-vanish problems, while secondly, they often assume homophily between central nodes and their adjacent nodes, which can be a challenge for heterophilic graphs. NoSAF introduces the concept of “All Nodes are Created Not Equal” into every layer, allowing each node to filter out beneficial information for subsequent layers. This framework incorporates a dynamically updated codebank that optimizes the optimal information outputted downwards at each layer. Additionally, NoSAF-D (Deep) is proposed to compensate for information loss through a compensation mechanism replenishing information in every layer.

NoSAF, a new Graph Neural Network architecture, helps overcome two major challenges. First, it makes GNNs deeper without over-smoothing or losing gradients. Second, it works well on graphs where nodes have different labels, unlike most current GNNs that assume similar labels. This means NoSAF can model more types of data. It does this by letting each node filter out what’s important for the next layer and updating its own “code” to do so. There’s also a deep version called NoSAF-D that helps keep information from getting lost during filtering.
