Graph Encoder Embedding

---

The Main folder contains the core GraphEncoder function in three languages:

• MATLAB: GraphEncoder.m
• Python: GraphEncoder.ipynb
• R: GraphEncoder.R plus several extension functions in MATLAB: -- TemporalGraph.m -- UnsupGraph.m

The Data folder contains the public real data used in the reference papers.

The Experiments folder contains various experiments, plots, and auxiliary functions for the reference papers.

Basic Usage in MATLAB:

Given a graph A (either an nn square matrix or an s3 edgelist) and corresponding label vector Y (n*1 vector with K classes), the following outputs the supervised graph encoder embedding

Z=GraphEncoder(A,Y); where Z is the n*K vertex embedding.

Given a time-series graph A (stored in a 1*T cell, and each cell can be either square matrix of edgelist), and a label vector Y, the following outputs the temporal embedding:

[Z,Dynamic]=TemporalGraph(E,Y); where Dynamic contains the vertex, community, and graph dynamic in a 1*3 cell output.

Given a graph A and desired number of class K (or a range), the following outputs the unsupervised embedding:

[Z,Y]=UnsupGraph(A,K); where Z is the unsupervised vertex embedding, and Y is the estimated class label vector for each vertex.
