Graph Learning with Spectral Connectivity Priors for Scarce Data

The paper introduces Spectral Connectivity-Regularized Graph Learning (SCoGL), a method for learning sparse graphs from limited data by incorporating Laplacian spectral priors that promote global connectivity. SCoGL extends the graphical lasso objective with a connectivity prior derived from Laplacian eigenvalues and uses projected gradient descent with Armijo backtracking for optimization. Experiments demonstrate that SCoGL improves graph recovery and enhances downstream tasks such as graph signal denoising when observations are scarce.

From Diffusion to Reaction-Diffusion: A Dynamical-Systems View of Oversmoothing in Hypergraph Neural Networks

arXiv:2607. 15773v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Higher-order couplings enhance the expressive power of hypergraph neural networks (HGNNs), but they also intensify representation collapse in deep propagation due to strong multi-way feature mixing.

Provable Guarantees for Spectral Structured Prediction

The paper presents provable guarantees for a spectral method that recovers binary node labels on signed graphs with edge‑flip noise. It provides graph‑structure‑agnostic bounds on approximate inference accuracy and maximum angle deviation, using matrix concentration and eigenvector perturbation techniques. The results connect to the Cheeger constant and are validated with synthetic experiments, marking the first theoretical analysis of this spectral approach.
