Graph neural networks (GNNs), a type of neural network that can learn from graph-structured data and learn the representation of nodes by aggregating their neighbors, have shown excellent performance in downstream tasks.However, it is known that the performance of graph neural networks (GNNs) degrades gradually as the number of layers increases. Based on k-hop subgraph aggregation, which is a new concept, we propose a new perspective to understand the expressive power of GNN.From this perspective, we reveal the potential causes of the performance degradation of the deep traditional GNN - aggregated subgraph overlap, and the fact that the residual-based graph neural networks in fact exploit the aggregation results of 1 to k hop subgraphs to improve the effectiveness.Further, we propose a new sampling-based node-level residual module named SDF, which is shown by theoretical derivation to obtain a superior expressive power compared to previous residual methods by using information from 1 to k hop subgraphs more flexibly. Extensive experiments show that the performance and efficiency of GNN with the SDF module outperform other methods.
