Graph learning (GL) can dynamically capture the distribution structure (graph structure) of data based on graph convolutional networks (GCN), and the learning quality of the graph structure directly influences GCN for semi-supervised classification. Existing methods mostly combine the computational layer and the related losses into GCN for exploring the global graph(measuring graph structure from all data samples) or local graph (measuring graph structure from local data samples). Global graph emphasises on the whole structure description of the inter-class data, while local graph trend to the neighborhood structure representation of intra-class data. However, it is difficult to simultaneously balance these graphs of the learning process for semi-supervised classification because of the interdependence of these graphs. To simulate the interdependence, deep graph learning(DGL) is proposed to find the better graph representation for semi-supervised classification. DGL can not only learn the global structure by the previous layer metric computation updating, but also mine the local structure by next layer local weight reassignment. Furthermore, DGL can fuse the different structures by dynamically encoding the interdependence of these structures, and deeply mine the relationship of the different structures by the hierarchical progressive learning for improving the performance of semi-supervised classification. Experiments demonstrate the DGL outperforms state-of-the-art methods on three benchmark datasets (Citeseer,Cora, and Pubmed) for citation networks and two benchmark datasets (MNIST and Cifar10) for images.

Existing zero-shot learning (ZSL) methods usually learn a projection function between a feature space and a semantic embedding space(text or attribute space) in the training seen classes or testing unseen classes. However, the projection function cannot be used between the feature space and multi-semantic embedding spaces, which have the diversity characteristic for describing the different semantic information of the same class. To deal with this issue, we present a novel method to ZSL based on learning class label autoencoder (CLA). CLA can not only build a uniform framework for adapting to multi-semantic embedding spaces, but also construct the encoder-decoder mechanism for constraining the bidirectional projection between the feature space and the class label space. Moreover, CLA can jointly consider the relationship of feature classes and the relevance of the semantic classes for improving zero-shot classification. The CLA solution can provide both unseen class labels and the relation of the different classes representation(feature or semantic information) that can encode the intrinsic structure of classes. Extensive experiments demonstrate the CLA outperforms state-of-art methods on four benchmark datasets, which are AwA, CUB, Dogs and ImNet-2.
