Overview of this book

Graph Machine Learning, Second Edition builds on its predecessor’s success, delivering the latest tools and techniques for this rapidly evolving field. From basic graph theory to advanced ML models, you’ll learn how to represent data as graphs to uncover hidden patterns and relationships, with practical implementation emphasized through refreshed code examples. This thoroughly updated edition replaces outdated examples with modern alternatives such as PyTorch and DGL, available on GitHub to support enhanced learning. The book also introduces new chapters on large language models and temporal graph learning, along with deeper insights into modern graph ML frameworks. Rather than serving as a step-by-step tutorial, it focuses on equipping you with fundamental problem-solving approaches that remain valuable even as specific technologies evolve. You will have a clear framework for assessing and selecting the right tools. By the end of this book, you’ll gain both a solid understanding of graph machine learning theory and the skills to apply it to real-world challenges. *Email sign-up and proof of purchase required -

Feature-based methods

One very simple (yet powerful) method for applying ML on graphs is to consider the encoding function as a simple embedding lookup. When dealing with supervised tasks, one simple way of doing this is to exploit graph properties. In Chapter 1, Getting Started with Graphs, we learned how graphs (or nodes in a graph) can be described by means of structural properties, each “encoding” important information from the graph itself.

Let’s forget graph ML for a moment; in classical supervised ML, the task is to find a function that maps a set of (descriptive) features of an instance to a particular output. Such features should be carefully engineered so that they are sufficiently representative to learn that concept. Therefore, as the number of petals and the sepal length might be good descriptors for a flower, when describing a graph, we might rely on its average degree, its global efficiency, and its characteristic path length.
