Abstract
An embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a graph node sampling system and a computer-implemented method, where structure information of nodes in a graph neural network is stored in a set of data structures, and attribute data of the nodes is stored in another set of data structures. Node sampling may be performed by a sampling unit in a solid state drive. A node sampling unit selects, reads, and collects attribute data of a sampled node and a neighboring node of the sampled node, and transfers the data to a main memory. The method and system according to the embodiments of the present disclosure can save bandwidth consumed by node sampling in large applications such as a graph neural network.
