GraphIFE addresses the class imbalance problem in graph-structured data by tackling a quality inconsistency issue in synthesized nodes. The framework uses graph invariant learning to strengthen embedding space representations and identify invariant features, leading to improved performance on minority classes. Experiments show that GraphIFE consistently outperforms various baselines across multiple datasets.

The paper introduces a Hybrid Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) framework for structured neural network pruning that integrates task‑aware sensitivity metrics (first‑order Taylor and Weight‑Fisher) into the objective’s linear term and optionally uses activation similarity for quadratic interactions. It controls pruning cardinality via a binary search over a capacity incentive rather than an explicit penalty and further refines the pruning mask with a two‑stage QUBO–Tensor‑Train strategy that employs gradient‑free black‑box optimization. Experiments on SIDD image denoising with a Half‑UNet model demonstrate that this Hybrid QUBO outperforms Taylor and L1‑based QUBO baselines in PSNR and SSIM, while also revealing computational and deployment challenges of mask‑based pruning.

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.
