 f. Antoine Bosselut\nCo-examiner: Prof. Robert West\n\nAbstract\nCurrent g
 raph neural networks(GNNs) lack scalability when the graph evolves over ti
 me(addition/deletion of edges/nodes\, changes of edge weights\, etc.). Tra
 ining the whole graph from scratch every time step is time-consuming and n
 ot practical in real-world scenarios. Inspired by the fact that most alter
 nations influence only certain local parts of the whole graph while the ma
 jor parts remain the same\, we design an incremental learning approach for
  evolving graphs based on subgraphs. Specifically\, we relearn the influen
 ced subgraphs while retaining the ability on the uninfluenced part of the 
 whole graph.\nWe conduct experiments on a citation network dataset and pro
 ve the feasibility of our proposed method. Furthermore\, we design a more 
 precise continual learning approach that takes the evolving degree of subg
 raph into account.\n\nBackground papers\n\n	DyRep: Learning Representation
