SiST-GNN: Simultaneous Spatial-Temporal Message Passing for Dynamic Graph Representation Learning

SiST‑GNN introduces a simultaneous spatial‑temporal message‑passing framework for dynamic graph neural networks, fusing per‑node temporal embeddings with spatial aggregation in a single operation. By maintaining a recurrent hidden state per node and treating it as a cross‑time edge, the model jointly reasons over topology and evolution. Experiments on link‑prediction and node‑classification benchmarks show significant improvements over prior methods, achieving up to 158% gains in live‑update link prediction and outperforming discrete‑time baselines by 7–23% in dynamic node classification.

MUGEN: Generating Unlearnable Graph Examples for Multiple Learning Tasks

MUGEN is a framework that generates unlearnable graph examples capable of protecting multiple downstream tasks—node classification, graph classification, and link prediction—simultaneously. It achieves this by perturbing a single clean dataset with a shared GNN encoder and task‑specific heads, guided by a Task‑Aligned Separability Objective (TASO) and a Type‑Adaptive Perturbation (TAP) that handles both discrete and continuous node attributes. Experiments on five benchmarks, four GNN backbones, and three learning paradigms show that MUGEN’s perturbations transfer across models and remain effective even under adversarial training and data augmentation.

Scaffold: Support Graph Theory Based Sparsification for Graph Neural Networks

Scaffold is a new unsupervised graph sparsification framework for graph neural networks that uses support graph theory preconditioners to jointly control dilation and congestion, thereby preserving short communication paths while avoiding bottlenecks. It achieves superior aggregate ranking across 19 homophilic and heterophilic benchmarks, recovering or closely approaching full‑graph GNN performance with only 10%–50% of the original edges. The method reduces memory usage to less than half and cuts end‑to‑end training time, including sparsification overhead.

F2STNet: Fair and Federated Spectral-Temporal Modeling for Graph Forecasting

arXiv:2608. 09082v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spatiotemporal prediction on graph-structured data is central to traffic forecasting and environmental monitoring, yet decentralized and heterogeneous data complicate both sequence modeling and collaborative training.
