Generalizable dynamic graph anomaly detection (DGAD) enables pretrained detectors to identify anomalies in unseen target domains without costly retraining. However, existing methods often fail for two reasons.
The paper introduces DGOTTA, a framework for temporal memory‑aware online test‑time adaptation on dynamic graphs. DGOTTA comprises three modules: temporal‑aware augmentation to diversify test graphs, memory‑aware model prediction to mitigate catastrophic forgetting, and consistency‑guided online adaptation to enforce temporal alignment and smoothness. Experiments on three real‑world datasets and four DGNN backbones show that DGOTTA improves generalization under diverse distribution shifts and across multiple model architectures.

High quality temporal graph benchmarks with rich semantics and ground-truth anomaly labels are essential for training graph neural networks, yet remain scarce due to privacy constraints and annotation costs. We present SAGA (Synthetic Agentic Graph Architecture), a system for generating large-scale, semantically rich temporal graphs via a four-phase pipeline.
