Negative sampling strategies for contrastive self-supervised learning of graph representations

Contrastive learning has become a successful approach for learning powerful text and image representations in a self-supervised manner. Contrastive frameworks learn to distinguish between representations coming from augmentations of the same data point (positive pairs) and those of other (negative) examples. Recent studies aim at extending methods from contrastive learning to graph data. In this work, we propose a general framework for learning...
