To handle graphs in which features or connectivities are evolving over time, a series of temporal graph neural networks (TGNNs) have been proposed. Despite the success of these TGNNs, the previous TGNN evaluations reveal several limitations regarding four critical issues: 1) inconsistent datasets, 2) inconsistent evaluation pipelines, 3) lacking workload diversity, and 4) lacking efficient comparison. Overall, there lacks an empirical study that puts TGNN models onto the same ground and compares them comprehensively. To this end, we propose BenchTemp, a general benchmark for evaluating TGNN models on various workloads. BenchTemp provides a set of benchmark datasets so that different TGNN models can be fairly compared. Further, BenchTemp engineers a standard pipeline that unifies the TGNN evaluation. With BenchTemp, we extensively compare the representative TGNN models on different tasks (e.g., link prediction and node classification) and settings (transductive and inductive), w.r.t. both effectiveness and efficiency metrics. We have made BenchTemp publicly available at https://github.com/qianghuangwhu/benchtemp.
Social media platforms contain a great wealth of information which provides opportunities for us to explore hidden patterns or unknown correlations, and understand people's satisfaction with what they are discussing. As one showcase, in this paper, we present a system, TwiInsight which explores the insight of Twitter data. Different from other Twitter analysis systems, TwiInsight automatically extracts the popular topics under different categories (e.g., healthcare, food, technology, sports and transport) discussed in Twitter via topic modeling and also identifies the correlated topics across different categories. Additionally, it also discovers the people's opinions on the tweets and topics via the sentiment analysis. The system also employs an intuitive and informative visualization to show the uncovered insight. Furthermore, we also develop and compare six most popular algorithms - three for sentiment analysis and three for topic modeling.
