Overview

About the project

Lots of data in scientific and engineering applications come with natural graph structures such as molecules in Chemistry, proteins in Biology, particles in Physics, planets in Astronomy, Bulk and MOF materials in Material Science, social and citation networks in Data Science, point clouds and meshes in Computer Vision and Graphics and so on. To model the information of such objects with complex structures, Graph Machine Learning, especially Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), has been proven as one of the most promising tools. Graph neural networks are deep learning architectures that can be trained to represent graphs with node features and edge features. For example, a molecule can be represented by a graph, where each atom is a node in the graph, and each bond is an edge.

Programme Structure

  • Identifying the ground challenges of graph based problems in Science and Engineering; 
  • Collecting or processing the desired data into graph formats; 
  • Proposing novel GNN architectures and training techniques to tackle the challenges of learning on these graph data;
  • Training and evaluating the proposed methods on specific metrics; 
  • Producing well-performing and reproducible results and releasing the modular and reusable codebase to the research community.

Student insurance

Make sure to cover your health, travel, and stay while studying abroad. Even global coverages can miss important items, so make sure your student insurance ticks all the following:

  • Additional medical costs (i.e. dental)
  • Repatriation, if something happens to you or your family
  • Liability
  • Home contents and baggage
  • Accidents
  • Legal aid

We partnered with Aon to provide you with the best affordable student insurance, for a carefree experience away from home.
