| Summary: | Recently, many models based on the combination of graph convolutional networks and deep learning have attracted extensive attention for their superior performance in graph clustering tasks. However, the existing models have the following limitations: (1) Existing models are limited by the calculation method of graph convolution, and their computational cost will increase exponentially as the graph scale grows. (2) Stacking too many convolutional layers causes the over-smoothing issue and neglects the local graph structure. (3) Expanding the range of the neighborhood and the model depth together is difficult due to the orthogonal relationship between them. Inspired by personalized pagerank and auto-encoder, we conduct the node-wise graph clustering task in the undirected simple graph as the research direction and propose a Scalable Deep Network (SDN) for graph clustering via personalized pagerank. Specifically, we utilize the combination of multi-layer perceptrons and linear propagation layer based on personalized pagerank as the backbone network (i.e., the Quasi-GNN module) and employ a DNN module for auto-encoder to learn different dimensions embeddings. After that, SDN combines the two embeddings correspondingly; then, it utilizes a dual self-supervised module to constrain the training of the embedding and clustering process. Our proposed Quasi-GNN module reduces the computational costs of traditional GNN models in a decoupled approach and solves the orthogonal relationship between the model depth and the neighborhood range. Meanwhile, it also alleviates the degraded clustering effect caused by the over-smoothing issue. We conducted experiments on five widely used graph datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that our model achieves state-of-the-art performance.
