Study Notes

Multi-Head Update Operation

All heads in the model can be updated simultaneously, enhancing feature diversity.
Following concatenation of heads, information is represented in multiple subspaces.

ViG Block and Over-Smoothing

Previous Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) faced issues with over-smoothing, decreasing node feature distinctiveness.
ViG block introduces additional feature transformations and nonlinear activations to counteract these issues.

Grapher Module Functionality

Vanilla ResGCN is supplemented by a Grapher module that consists of both aggregation and update layers.
Linear layers are applied pre- and post-graph convolution to maintain and enhance feature diversity.

Graph Convolution Operations

The graph convolution process aggregates features from neighboring nodes, updating node features accordingly.
Utilizes max-relative graph convolution for efficiency in computing node representations.

Graph-Level Processing

Begins with input feature representation to construct a graph, exchanging information among nodes through convolutional layers.
Aggregation and update operations are key to merging node features and retaining useful information.

Data Augmentation Techniques

Techniques employed include RandAugment, Mixup, Cutmix, and random erasing.
These augmentations help enhance model performance during training on tasks such as COCO detection.
