AnomalyGFM: Graph Foundation Model for Zero/Few-shot Anomaly Detection

Read the original on arXiv AI →

AnomalyGFM is a graph foundation model designed for zero- and few-shot anomaly detection in graphs. It learns graph‑agnostic normal and abnormal prototypes by aligning data‑independent class representations with node representation residuals, enabling consistent abnormality measurement across diverse graph datasets. Experiments on 11 real‑world GAD datasets show that AnomalyGFM outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods in both zero‑shot and few‑shot settings.

One Pretrained Decision Model Is Enough for Training-Free Generalist Graph Anomaly Detection

The paper introduces Jev-GAD, a training‑free generalist graph anomaly detection framework that combines complementary structural, attribute, and neighborhood evidence with a single frozen pretrained language model for anomaly assessment. It transforms heterogeneous statistics into graph‑relative percentiles and uses a semantic Graph‑to‑State (G2S) transformation to feed evidence into a non‑generative decision readout, fusing the resulting scores with four statistical measures. Experiments on seven benchmark datasets show Jev‑GAD achieving high AUROC (89.18%) and AUPRC (52.40%) scores, demonstrating the effectiveness of pretrained decision readout and semantic evidence grounding.

Is Real-World Training Data Necessary for Generalist Graph Anomaly Detection?

The paper investigates whether synthetic data can replace real-world training data for generalist graph anomaly detection (GAD). It introduces AG-FORGE, a framework that automatically generates anomalous graphs, and shows that synthetic data can match real-world performance but does not surpass it due to method limitations. To overcome this, the authors propose TS-GGAD, a model that jointly learns topological and semantic anomaly cues with a curriculum learning strategy, achieving superior results on 14 real-world datasets when trained on AG-FORGE-generated data.
