Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Message passing neural networks such as graph convolutional networks (GCN) can jointly consider various types of features for social bot detection. However, the expressive power of GCN is upper-bounded by the 1st-order Weisfeiler-Leman isomorphism test, which limits the detection performance for the social bots. In this paper, we propose a subgraph encoding based GCN model, SEGCN, with stronger expressive power for social bot detection. Each node representation of this model is computed as the encoding of a surrounding induced subgraph rather than encoding of immediate neighbors only. Extensive experimental results on two publicly available datasets, Twibot-20 and Twibot-22, showed that the proposed model improves the accuracy of the state-of-the-art social bot detection models by around 2.4%, 3.1%, respectively.
