The paper introduces MuGSI, a novel knowledge distillation (KD) framework that combines the strengths of graph neural networks (GNNs) and multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs) for graph classification. It aims to bridge the gap between node-level classification and graph-level classification by employing a multi-granularity distillation loss function and a node feature augmentation component. The proposed MuGSI framework consists of three components: graph-level distillation, subgraph-level distillation, and node-level distillation, which target different granularities of the graph structure. This approach ensures a comprehensive transfer of structural knowledge from the teacher model to the student model. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness, efficiency, and robustness of MuGSI.

The paper is about using artificial intelligence (AI) to help computers understand how graphs are structured. It’s like trying to teach a computer to recognize patterns in pictures, but instead it’s looking at connections between things. The computer has two ways of doing this: one way uses special networks called graph neural networks, and the other way uses simpler networks called multi-layer perceptrons. The problem is that these methods are not good at working together. The paper introduces a new method called MuGSI that combines both approaches to make it better at recognizing patterns in graphs.
