Toward Federated Multimodal Graph Foundation Models: A Topology-Aware Multimodal Alignment Framework

arXiv:2607. 15687v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal-attributed graphs (MAGs), whose nodes carry modalities such as images and text alongside topological structure, now pervade applications including social platforms, e-commerce, and biomedical networks, offering richer semantic signals than single-modality graphs.

Rethinking Federated Graph Foundation Models: A Graph-Language Alignment-based Approach

arXiv:2601. 21369v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent studies of federated graph foundational models (FedGFMs) break the idealized and untenable assumption of having centralized data storage to train graph foundation models, and accommodate the reality of distributed, privacy-restricted data silos.

G2LoRA: Gradient Orthogonal Low-Rank Adaptation Framework for Graph Continual Learning on Text-Attributed Graphs

arXiv:2606. 01873v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-as-Aligner has emerged as a prevalent pre-training paradigm for Text-Attributed Graphs(TAGS), aligning graph and text modalities into a shared embedding space via CLIP-style contrastive learning.
