Generalized Graph Variational Autoencoders: Bounded Divergences Control Posterior Collapse
The variational graph autoencoder (VGAE) regularizes its posterior toward the prior with the Kullback-Leibler divergence, a choice inherited from the variational autoencoder rather than argued for. We introduce the generalized graph variational autoencoder (GGVA), which replaces that term with any member of the R\'enyi...
