K-plex Cover Pooling for Graph Neural Networks

We introduce a novel pooling technique which borrows from classical results in graph theory that is non-parametric and generalizes well to graphs of different nature and connectivity pattern. Our pooling method, named KPlexPool, builds on the concepts of graph covers and $k$-plexes, i.e. pseudo-cliques where each node can miss up to $k$ links. The experimental evaluation on molecular and social graph classification shows that KPlexPool achieves state of the art performances, supporting the intuition that well-founded graph-theoretic approaches can be effectively integrated in learning models for graphs.
