2 Node Ranking in temporal graphs Temporal graphs have been widely applied to model dynamic networks. Automated systems Computer networks Citation networks Anomaly detection Attack detection Author ranking Ranking models are desired to suggest and maintain the nodes with high priority in dynamic graphs. The node ranks can be influenced by rich context from heterogeneous node information, network structures, and temporal perspectives.

3 Alert ranking in a heterogeneous system alert network. A fraction of a real-world heterogeneous temporal information network from data center monitoring. (host) (host) h 1 h 2 (service) "Database" h 2 (host) (service) "Network" h 2 (host) (service) "Network" Temporal context: suggests the impact of historical or future events to current decisions. l 1 l 2 a 1 a 2 (alert) (alert) 03:33 am Log 'l1' at 3:33 am, Host 'h1' with service "Database" & content 'login failure'... l 3 l 4 a 3 a 4 (alert) (alert) l 5 l' 5 l 6 a 5 a 6 a 7 l 7 (alert) (alert) (alert) G 09:44 am 1 G 09:45 am 2 G 3 Log 'l3' at 9:44 am, Host 'h2' with service "Network" &content'connectionfailed' Alert 'a5' at 9:45 am, relevant to log l and log,reason: 5 l' 5 'Unusual small # of logs' Structural context: captures the features in the neighborhood of nodes at each snapshot. Node attributes: encodes the input information of a node.

4 Challenges Learning to rank nodes in temporal graphs is more challenging than its counterpart over static graphs: Context learning: structural and temporal context can be used to differentiate the roles that different nodes play in node ranking. Automated approach to learn context features for node ranking. Context dynamics: context features bear constant changes over time. Effective models that can capture context evolution over time. Label sparsity: labels provided by users are sparse and cover a small fraction of nodes Effective learning that can be generalized from sparsely labeled data. Time cost: fast learning and ranking upon the arrival of new nodes. Effective optimization and provable performance guarantees.

5 Learning to rank nodes in temporal graphs Input: training data, consists of a temporal graph - and labeled data., a ranking function space /, and an error function 0(2) that measures the ranking error. Output: an optimal function 4 / such that the ranking error 0(4,,) is minimized. Pipeline: User-ranked nodes! ",! $! ",! %! &,! % Node ranking! (! *! + TGNet Model Learning w Model Inference

6 Overview of TGNet Model Four components: Initialization layer: projects input feature vector into hidden state space; Structural propagation layer: exchanges neighborhood information in a snapshot; Temporal propagation layer: propagates temporal influence between snapshots; Output layer: transforms hidden states to ranking scores.

11 Influence modeling Edge-centric: parameters are associated to edges; Can not deal with context changes, daunting for users to choose edge types. Node-centric (influence network): The influence between two nodes is conditioned by their contexts; The node context is determined by its hidden state.
