Multiview fuzzy graph attention networks for enhanced graph learning
Fuzzy Graph Attention Network (FGAT), which combines Fuzzy Rough Sets and Graph Attention Networks, has shown promise in tasks requiring robust graph-based learning. However, existing models struggle to effectively capture dependencies from multiple perspectives, limiting their ability to model complex data. To address this gap, we propose the Multi-view Fuzzy Graph Attention Network (MFGAT), a novel framework that constructs and aggregates multi-view information using a specially designed Transformation Block. This block dynamically transforms data from multiple aspects and aggregates the resulting representations via a weighted sum mechanism, enabling comprehensive multi-view modeling. The aggregated information is fed into FGAT to enhance fuzzy graph convolutions. Additionally, we introduce a simple yet effective learnable global pooling mechanism for improved graph-level understanding. Extensive experiments on graph classification tasks demonstrate that MFGAT outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, underscoring its effectiveness and versatility.
