The key distinction between GNN and the WL algorhtm

  1. The WL algorithm aggregates and updates discrete labels (using a hash function) while GNN models aggregate and update node embeddings using neural networks.
  2. GNNs have been motivated and derived as a continuous and differentiable analog of the WL algorithm.
