Community detection has long been an important yet challenging task to analyze complex networks with a focus on detecting topological structures of graph data. Essentially, real-world graph data contains various features, node and edge types which dynamically vary over time, and this invalidates most existing community detection approaches. To cope with these issues, this paper proposes the heterogeneous-temporal graph convolutional networks (HTGCN) to detect communities from hetergeneous and temporal graphs. Particularly, we first design a heterogeneous GCN component to acquire feature representations for each heterogeneous graph at each time step. Then, a residual compressed aggregation component is proposed to represent "dynamic" features for "varying" communities, which are then aggregated with "static" features extracted from current graph. Extensive experiments are evaluated on two real-world datasets, i.e., DBLP and IMDB. The promising results demonstrate that the proposed HTGCN is superior to both benchmark and the state-of-the-art approaches, e.g., GCN, GAT, GNN, LGNN, HAN and STAR, with respect to a number of evaluation criteria.
