Abstract
Binary neural networks have become a promising research topic due to their advantages of fast inference speed and low energy consumption.However,most existing studies focus on binary convolutional neural networks,while less attention has been paid to binary graph neural networks.A common drawback of existing studies on binary graph neural networks is that they still include lots of inefficient full-precision operations in multiplying three matrices and are therefore not efficient enough.In this paper,we propose a novel method,called re-quantization-based binary graph neural networks(RQBGN),for binarizing graph neural networks.Specifically,re-quantization,a necessary procedure contributing to the further reduction of superfluous inefficient full-precision operations,quantizes the results of multiplication between any two matrices during the process of multiplying three matrices.To address the challenges introduced by re-quantization,in RQBGN we first study the impact of different computation orders to find an effective one and then introduce a mixture of experts to increase the model capacity.Experiments on five benchmark datasets show that performing re-quantization in different computation orders significantly impacts the performance of binary graph neural network models,and RQBGN can outperform other baselines to achieve state-of-the-art performance.
