MOVE: Multimodal Open-world Verification and Expansion for Graph Learning

The paper introduces MOVE, a framework for multimodal open‑world verification and expansion in graph learning. MOVE jointly uses visual tokens, textual attributes, and graph context to identify nodes that cannot be assigned to existing classes, then employs a multimodal LLM to generate candidate class descriptions. It selectively expands the class space only when multimodal evidence consistently supports the new classes, avoiding redundancy, and reports an average 11.87% improvement across unknown recognition, open‑domain annotation, and downstream graph learning tasks.

LLM as GNN: Graph Vocabulary Learning for Text-Attributed Graph Foundation Models

The paper introduces PromptGFM, a Graph Foundation Model designed for text‑attributed graphs (TAGs). It integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) and Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) through a Graph Understanding Module that prompts LLMs to emulate GNN workflows, and a Graph Inference Module that creates a language‑based graph vocabulary for better alignment and scalability. Experiments show PromptGFM outperforms existing methods and transfers effectively across various graphs and tasks.
