Graph Augmentation Clustering Network

Existing graph clustering networks heavily rely on a predefined graph and may fail if the initial graph is of low quality. To tackle this issue, we propose a novel graph augmentation clustering network capable of adaptively enhancing the initial graph to achieve better clustering performance. Specifically, we first integrate the node attribute and topology structure information to learn the latent feature representation. Then, we explore the local geometric structure information on the embedding space to construct an adjacency graph and subsequently develop an adaptive graph augmentation architecture to fuse that graph with the initial one dynamically. Finally, we minimize the Jeffreys divergence between multiple derived distributions to conduct network training in an unsupervised fashion. Extensive experiments on six commonly used benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed method consistently outperforms several state-of-the-art approaches. In particular, our method improves the ARI by more than 9.39\% over the best baseline on DBLP. The source codes and data have been submitted to the appendix.
