In this study, we focus on the graph representation learning (a.k.a. network embedding) in attributed graphs. Different from existing embedding methods that treat the incorporation of graph structure and semantic as the simple combination of two optimization objectives, we propose a novel semantic graph representation (SGR) method to formulate the joint optimization of the two heterogeneous sources into a common high-order proximity based framework. Concretely, we first construct an auxiliary weighted graph, where the complex homogeneous and heterogeneous relations among nodes and attributes in the original graph are comprehensively encoded. Conventional embedding methods that consider high-order topology proximities can then be easily applied to the newly constructed graph to learn the representations of both node and attribute while capturing the nonlinear high-order intrinsic correlation inside or among graph structure and semantic. The learned attribute embeddings can also effectively support some semantic-oriented inference tasks (e.g., semantic community detection), helping to reveal the graph's deep semantic. The effectiveness of SGR is further verified on a series of real graphs, where it achieves impressive performance over other baselines.
