This disclosure provides a system for pairwise network alignment. In operation, the system receives datasets from two networks, each network having a plurality of nodes. The two networks are embedded based on multi-layer graph convolution to generate network embeddings. An inner product similarity score is generated between the two networks based on an inner product of the network embeddings. Next, a node correspondence is estimated between the two networks using a SoftMax function on the inner product similarity score. Finally, the two networks are aligned on the node correspondence.
