Review for NeurIPS paper: Reliable Graph Neural Networks via Robust Aggregation
–Neural Information Processing Systems
The time cost of the proposed aggregation function in practice is not given, though the worse case complexity is somehow analyzed, but practitioners may care more about the time, i.e., what's the time cost to finish one epoch training/(or one inference) compared to the time of vanilla models like GCN? also what's the time cost compare to other defense? In line 158, it's mentioned that soft medoid comes with the risk of a higher bias for small perturbations and high epsilon, the author should take this effect into account when conducting experiments, to better show the shortcomings out to readers. As found in the paper, this increased robustness against structure-based attacks comes with a cost of decreasing robustness on attribute attacks, the author should make it clear how much robustness lost to attribute attacks by using soft medoid aggregation, otherwise, the method just makes the model robust to structure attacks but super vulnerable to attribute inference attacks.
