The paper proposes an extension to the Prime Adjacency Matrices (PAMs) framework for efficiently representing and analyzing multi-relational networks. By employing prime numbers to uniquely represent distinct relations, a single adjacency matrix can be used to compactly represent a complete graph, enabling quick computation of multi-hop matrices. The authors introduce a lossless algorithm for calculating these matrices and propose the Bag of Paths (BoP) representation as a feature extraction methodology for various graph analytics tasks at the node, edge, and graph levels. Compared to commonly used neural models, simple BoP-based models perform comparably or better while offering improved speed and interpretability.

The paper helps us understand how to efficiently work with big networks that have many connections. This is important because we’re working with increasingly large datasets across fields like medicine, finance, and social sciences. The authors improve a framework called Prime Adjacency Matrices (PAMs) by adding a new way to calculate some important matrices quickly and accurately. They also introduce a way to extract useful features from these networks using something called the Bag of Paths (BoP). This helps us analyze the networks in different ways, like looking at individual nodes or edges.
