PLATO is a method that enables deep learning on a tabular dataset with orders-of-magnitude more features than samples by using an auxiliary knowledge graph. (a) In PLATO, every input feature in a tabular dataset corresponds to a node in an auxiliary knowledge graph with information about the domain. (b) In the first layer of a MLP, every input feature corresponds to a vector of weights. (c,d) PLATO is based on the inductive bias that, if two input features correspond to similar nodes in the auxiliary KG, they should have similar weight vectors in the first layer of the MLP. PLATO captures the inductive bias by inferring the weight vector for each input feature from its corresponding node in the auxiliary KG. Ultimately, input features with similar embeddings produce similar weight vectors, regularizing the MLP and capturing the inductive bias.
