MetaSieve: Faster Relational Deep Learning through SQL-Based Metapath Selection

MetaSieve is a metapath selection layer that reduces subgraph size in relational deep learning by pruning uninformative metapaths using SQL join and aggregation statistics. It scores candidate metapath extensions with a lightweight function that favors informative yet lightweight paths, discarding those below a threshold. The method is independent of GNN parameters and, when applied to the RelBench benchmark, consistently cuts per‑epoch training time while preserving or improving accuracy.

Inductive Correlation Clustering with Graph Neural Networks

The paper introduces Inductive Correlation Clustering, a new framework that uses Graph Neural Networks to solve the Correlation Clustering problem on unseen graph instances. By learning common structural patterns and node features, the method generalizes to new graphs with minimal computational overhead, achieving inference times up to five orders of magnitude faster while maintaining an approximation ratio within about 10% of the best baseline. It also demonstrates competitive performance on standard transductive benchmarks and serves as an efficient learnable pooling layer for graph classification tasks.

AdaSTORM: Scaling LLM Reasoning on Dynamic Graphs via Adaptive Spatio-Temporal Multi-Agent Collaboration

arXiv:2606. 16328v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable potential in dynamic graph reasoning, but suffer from a scaling bottleneck: current models can only handle graphs with tens of nodes, constrained by exponential reasoning overhead and finite context windows.

What Makes a Desired Graph for Relational Deep Learning?

arXiv:2606. 08491v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Relational deep learning (RDL) converts relational databases (RDBs) into heterogeneous graphs, but graphs derived directly from database schemas are often not well suited for how graph neural networks (GNNs) perform relational reasoning.
