Research on Heterogeneous Information Network Link Prediction Based on Representation Learning

Abstract

A heterogeneous information network, which is composed of various types of nodes and edges, has a complex structure and rich information content, and is widely used in social networks, academic networks, e-commerce, and other fields. Link prediction, as a key task to reveal the unobserved relationships in the network, is of great significance in heterogeneous information networks. This paper reviews the application of presentation-based learning methods in link prediction of heterogeneous information networks. This paper introduces the basic concepts of heterogeneous information networks, and the theoretical basis of representation learning, and discusses the specific application of the deep learning model in node embedding learning and link prediction in detail. The effectiveness and superiority of these methods on multiple real data sets are demonstrated by experimental verification.
