Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have proven to be useful for many different practical applications. However, most existing GNN models have an implicit assumption of homophily among the nodes connected in the graph, and therefore have largely overlooked the important setting of heterophily. In this work, we propose a novel framework called CPGNN that generalizes GNNs for graphs with either homophily or heterophily. The proposed framework incorporates an interpretable compatibility matrix for modeling the heterophily or homophily level in the graph, which can be learned in an end-to-end fashion, enabling it to go beyond the assumption of strong homophily. Theoretically, we show that replacing the compatibility matrix in our framework with the identity (which represents pure homophily) reduces to GCN. Our extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in more realistic and challenging experimental settings with significantly less training data compared to previous works: CPGNN variants achieve state-of-the-art results in heterophily settings with or without contextual node features, while maintaining comparable performance in homophily settings.

本研究提出了CPGNN框架，它使用可解释的兼容性矩阵来建模图中异相性（heterophily）或同相性（homophily）水平，并证明了该框架在更现实和具有挑战性的实验设置下比以前的作品要有效。
