Semantic Representation Learning of Scientific Literature based on Adaptive Feature and Graph Neural Network

Because most scientific literature data are unlabeled, semantic representation learning based on unsupervised graphs has become crucial. To enrich scientific-literature features, this paper proposes a semantic representation learning method based on adaptive features and graph neural networks. By introducing adaptive feature processing, scientific-literature features are considered globally and locally. The graph attention mechanism weights and aggregates features of scientific documents connected by citation relations, so that correlations among different documents can be expressed more effectively. In addition, an unsupervised graph neural network semantic representation learning method is proposed. By comparing the mutual information between positive and negative local semantic representations of scientific literature and the global graph semantic representation in the latent space, the graph neural network captures local and global information and improves semantic representation learning. Experimental results show that the proposed method is competitive for scientific literature classification.
