Kipf and Welling made a first-order approximation of spectral graph convolution, yielding a simple layer-wise propagation that did semi-supervised node classification on citation networks. GCNs let neural networks train directly on graph-structured data and became a standard component in drug discovery, recommendation, risk control and knowledge graphs.

Curator's note: Cross-checked against the arXiv preprint; the paper was published at ICLR in 2017.

All six styles come from one template and can be compared word for word. [引用日期], Accessed, urldate and Y2 all carry this page's build date, 2026-11-03 — a static page is an immutable snapshot, so substitute the date you actually consulted it. The address in every style is the archive's canonical page: this English page translates the same snapshot, and the work keeps its name, so one record cites both. For one-click copying use the same entry in the timeline, which takes the day you opened it. Expand the other styles before printing.
