Multi-Label Node Classification with Label Influence Propagation

arXiv:2607.00671v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graphs are a complex and versatile data structure used across various domains, with possibly multi-label nodes playing a particularly crucial role. Examples include proteins in PPI networks with multiple functions and users in social or e-commerce networks exhibiting diverse interests. Tackling multi-label node classification (MLNC) on graphs has led to the development of various approaches. Some methods leverage graph neural networks (GNNs) to exploit label co-occurrence correlations, while others incorporate label embeddings to capture label pr
