This paper focuses on heterogeneous graph neural networks (HGNNs), a type of neural model designed for computer vision and machine learning tasks on complex graphs with diverse node and edge relationships. Existing HGNNs employ separate parameter spaces to model these varied relationships, but this approach is limited by the “parameter explosion” and “relation collapse” issues, making them less effective or impractical for complex graphs. To address this limitation, the authors introduce a novel framework, Blend&Grind-HGNN (BG-HGNN), which integrates different relations into a unified feature space managed by a single set of parameters. This approach results in a refined HGNN method that is more efficient and accurate, with empirical studies showing significant improvements over existing HGNNs in terms of parameter efficiency, training throughput, and accuracy.

Imagine you have a big graph with lots of different connections between things. Machine learning models can learn from these graphs to do cool tasks like recognize objects or predict behaviors. One type of model is called heterogeneous graph neural networks (HGNNs). Existing HGNNs are good, but they struggle when there are too many types of connections. This paper introduces a new way to make HGNNs work better by combining all the different connections into one special space that’s easier for computers to process. This helps HGNNs be more efficient and accurate, making them useful for even bigger and more complex graphs.
