Representing context, reasoning within contexts, and providing quantitative assessments of machine learning (ML) model certainty are all tasks of fundamental importance for secure, interpretable, and reliable model development. Recent enthusiasm regarding generative ML models has highlighted the importance of representing context, which is contingent on relevant and contextual features of data and model predictions are unreliable on out-of-context inputs. Herein, we develop the theory of graph representation learning (GRL) to extend to Bayesian Graph Neural Networks and to incorporate various forms of uncertainty quantification to improve model development and application in the presence of adversarial attacks. Within this framework, we approach the challenge of adversarial patch detection using a synthesized dataset consisting of images from the APRICOT and COCO datasets to study various binary classification models for patch detection. We present GRL models with two layers of edge convolution that are capable of detecting patches with up to 93.5% accuracy. Further, we find evidence supporting the use of the certainty and competence framework for model predictions as a tool for detecting patches, particularly when the former is included as a model feature in graph neural networks.
