Distinguishing the structural equivalence of nodes in a graph plays an essential role in many scientific domains, e.g., computational biologist and social network analysis. However, existing graph neural networks (GNNs) fail to capture such an important property. To make GNN aware of structural equivalence, we first introduce a localized variant of the classic concept — automorphic equivalence (AE). Then, we design a novel variant of GNN, i.e., GRAPE, that uses learnable AE-aware aggregators to explicitly differentiate the structural equivalences of each node's neighbors with the aids of various subgraph templates. To alleviate the barrier of subgraph template design, we also propose to automatically search the design space with an efficient genetic algorithm. Moreover, we theoretically prove that GRAPE is expressive in terms of generating distinct representations for nodes with different AE features, which fills in a fundamental gap of existing GNN variants. Finally, we empirically validate our model on eight real-world graph data, including social network, e-commerce co-purchase network, and citation network, and show that it consistently outperforms strong baselines.Distinguishing the structural equivalence of nodes in a graph plays an essential role in many scientific domains, e.g., computational biologist and social network analysis.
