Abstract :

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are models that use the structure of graphs to better exploit the bilateral relationship between neighboring nodes. Some problems, however, require that we consider a more general relationship which involve not only two nodes but rather a group of nodes. This is the approach adopted in Hypergraph Convolution and Hypergraph Attention Networks (HGAN) [1]. In this paper, we first propose to incorporate a weight matrix into these networks which, as our experimentations show, can improve the performance of the models in question. The other novelty in our work is the introduction of self-loops in the graphs which again leads to slight improvements in the accuracy of HAN.
