Method of Attributed Heterogeneous Network Embedding with Multiple Features

Abstract

Network embedding aims to represent nodes in unstructured network with low-dimensional,real-valued vectors,so that node embedding can retain the structural and attribute features of the original network as much as possible.However,current research mainly focuses on embedding the network structure.There are few researches considering relationship attributes and node attributes with rich semantics in heterogeneous information networks,which mayresult in semetic loss of node embedding and affect the prediction effect of downstream applications.To solve this problem,this paper designs a method of attributed heteroge-neous network embedding with multiple features(MFAHNE).This method integrates the relationship attributes,node attributes and structural semantics in the network into the final node embedding through the steps of sampling sequence,embedding with structural feature,embedding with attribute feature and merging features.Experiment result shows that this method can take into account the structural feature and attribute features,realizes the mutual supplement of two kinds of feature information,and is better than the traditional network embedding methods.
