This paper introduces a novel approach to construct node embeddings from graph metrics in the absence of explicit node features. The proposed encoder, PropEnc, combines histogram construction with reversed index encoding to initialize node features. This method is universally applicable, flexible in terms of dimensionality and type of input, and effective across various applications. PropEnc addresses the sparsity challenge by allowing encoding in low-dimensional space, enhancing model efficiency. Evaluation results on social networks without explicit node features demonstrate the effectiveness of PropEnc in graph classification tasks.

This paper solves a problem in machine learning called graph neural networks. It helps when there’s no information about individual parts (nodes) in a network, like when you can’t see who someone is connected to on social media. The team created a new way to create these node features using any metric that describes the nodes. This approach works well for different types of data and makes machine learning models more efficient.
