Architectures for sparse hierarchical representation learning have recently been proposed for graph-structured data, but so far assume the absence of edge features in the graph. We close this gap and propose a method to pool graphs with…

Graph pooling is commonly applied in graph classification, yet its empirical gains over standard WL-1 expressive GNNs are often marginal or inconsistent. We study this gap by analysing the interaction between node features and graph…
