Graph Neural Networks and Learning Systems
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Learning with graph-structured data, such as molecular, social, biological, and financial networks, requires effective representations of their graph structure. Recently, there has been a surge of interest in graph neural network (GNN) approaches for representation learning of graphs. GNNs typically follow a recursive neighborhood aggregation scheme, where each node aggregates feature vectors of its neighbors to compute its new features. Empirically, GNNs have achieved state-of-the-art performance in many tasks such as learning system function, node classification, link prediction, and graph classification.
The Topic “Graph Neural Networks and Learning Systems” aims to attract cutting-edge research in this fascinating domain. Historically, GNNs have yielded groundbreaking progress in tackling real-world challenges, from anomaly detection to recommender systems, traffic forecasting, disease control, and drug discovery. Despite their rapid emergence and success, the field faces challenges in areas such as fundamental theory and models, algorithms and methods, supporting tools and platforms, and real-world applications. As GNNs have enormous potential applications, this topic is both exciting and controversial. Please join us in creating a diverse collection of articles, and we look forward to receiving your contributions.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.
MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:
- Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
- Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
- Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
- Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
- Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
