Exploration Degree Bias: The Hidden Influence of Node Degree in Graph Neural Network-Based Reinforcement Learning by Peter Tarabek, David Matis

“…This phenomenon impacts exploration in RL, skewing it away from mid-degree nodes, potentially hindering the discovery of optimal policies. We provide a systematic investigation of EDB across widely used GNN architectures—GCN, GraphSAGE, GAT, and GIN—by quantifying correlations between node degrees and logits. …”
