Binary node classification Yandex Q&A expert network binary node classification from the heterophilic benchmark. Uses the corrected benchmark features and ten official splits. Low homophily and class imbalance make split and metric choice important. Evaluated by ROC-AUC.
Dataset details
Task
Yandex Q&A expert network binary node classification from the heterophilic benchmark. The primary catalog metric is ROC-AUC.
Data
Yandex Q&A expert network binary node classification from the heterophilic benchmark.
Features
The benchmark provides one fixed graph, node features, labels, and ten official splits per dataset. Features are dataset-specific and include text-derived, product, synthetic-grid, or platform-account attributes described by the release.
Splits and evaluation
The catalog records these protocols or variants: Standard split. Evaluation uses ROC-AUC (higher is better). Exact masks or folds must come from the cited release.
Quirks and pitfalls
Use the corrected release and its ten masks. Several tasks are imbalanced and use ROC-AUC rather than accuracy; treating missing relationships as negative evidence or tuning on the test masks invalidates comparison.
