arXiv:2608. 12441v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning detectors for anomalies in dynamic graphs have reached strong accuracy, yet they remain opaque: when an edge is flagged, the analyst receives a score but no reason.

FoundAna is a GNN‑assisted foundation model designed for graph anomaly detection across diverse datasets. It combines a GNN component with a transformer encoder enhanced by four positional encodings to capture both local and global structure, using reconstruction errors as anomaly scores. Experiments on nine benchmark datasets from financial, social, and citation networks show that FoundAna consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines.

RINSE (Robust Iterative Normality Self-Estimation) is a gradient‑free framework for zero‑shot graph anomaly detection that keeps a source‑trained detector fixed while iteratively estimating target normality, calibrating representations, and assessing evidence reliability on unseen target graphs. It identifies a reliable subset of low‑residual target nodes to build a trimmed target‑aware normality model and fuses complementary anomaly evidence through reliability‑gated rank fusion and encoder ensembling. Across eight unseen target graphs, RINSE achieves the highest average AUPRC under two preprocessing protocols, with ablation and sensitivity analyses supporting its combined design.

Generalizable dynamic graph anomaly detection (DGAD) enables pretrained detectors to identify anomalies in unseen target domains without costly retraining. However, existing methods often fail for two reasons.

The paper introduces a statistical feature augmentation technique that encodes behavioral interaction statistics into the input space for dynamic graph anomaly detection. Experiments on Reddit, Wikipedia, and MOOC datasets across seven models—both continuous-time and discrete-time—show that this augmentation consistently improves detection performance compared to models trained on original embeddings. The enriched input also facilitates fine-grained post-hoc analysis of behavioral importance, linking classical network analysis with deep learning.

The paper introduces an unsupervised hypergraph neural network designed to detect anomalous hyperedges—higher-order associations that deviate from typical patterns. Unlike conventional graph methods that capture only pairwise relationships, this approach leverages hypergraphs to model associations among any number of entities. Experiments on real-life datasets show the model effectively identifies unusual hyperedges without requiring labeled data.
