Graph-Dependent Pooling (GDPool) introduces a dynamic approach to hierarchical graph pooling, allowing each graph to determine its own pooling granularity rather than relying on fixed cluster numbers or ratios. The method employs self-attention to select graph-specific anchors and uses soft node assignment to build coarser graphs, addressing optimization conflicts identified through gradient alignment analysis. Experiments on metal‑organic framework and molecular graph datasets demonstrate that GDPool outperforms existing methods in predictive accuracy, modularity, and exhibits stable behavior across various hyperparameters.
Graph Neural Networks are widely used to learn structural representations of relational data. Hierarchical graph pooling learns multi-level representations by progressively coarsening graphs; however,...

The paper reinterprets graph neural networks (GNNs) as retrieval-augmented models, where each layer uses an MLP on a node representation and a permutation‑invariant summary of retrieved graph context instead of traditional message passing. It introduces RTA, a lightweight MLP‑based framework that replaces structural message passing with label‑aware retrieval and propagation, and provides theoretical links to softmax‑attention message passing and robustness to mis‑retrieved outliers. Experiments on text‑attributed graph benchmarks demonstrate that RTA matches or surpasses strong GNN and graph LLM baselines while improving efficiency and robustness.
