However\, th e expressive power of GNN has only been studied for graph-level tasks but not for node-level tasks\, such as node classification\, where one tries t o interpolate missing nodal labels from the observed ones. In this paper\, we study the expressive power of GNN for the said classification task\, w hich is in essence a function interpolation problem. Explicitly\, we deriv e the number of weights and layers needed for a GNN to interpolate a band- limited function in . Our result shows that\, the number of weights needed to -approximate a bandlimited function using the GNN architecture is much fewer than the best known one using a fully connected neural network (NN) - in particular\, one only needs weights using a GNN trained by samples t o -approximate a discretized bandlimited signal in . The result is obtaine d by drawing a connection between the GNN structure and the classical samp ling theorems\, making our work the first attempt in this direction.\n DTSTART:20230130T213000Z DTEND:20230130T223000Z LOCATION:Room 708\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Martina Neuman (Michigan State University) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/martina-neuman-michigan-s tate-university-345116 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
