Aitchison Embeddings for Learning Compositional Graph Representations

The paper introduces a compositional graph embedding framework based on Aitchison geometry, where nodes are represented as simplex-valued mixtures over latent archetypal factors. By embedding these mixtures using isometric log-ratio coordinates, the method preserves Aitchison distances while allowing unconstrained optimization in Euclidean space, yielding intrinsically interpretable embeddings. The approach achieves competitive performance on node classification and link prediction tasks and enables principled component restriction through subcompositional coherence, allowing analysis of how archetype groups influence representations and predictions.

Lost in Tokenization: Fundamental Trade-offs in Graph Tokenization for Transformers

The paper investigates how the choice of graph tokenization affects transformer expressivity. It analyzes three tokenization families—spectral, random‑walk, and adjacency—showing that each induces different depth requirements and that some tokenizations are inherently lossy or ill‑conditioned for certain tasks. The authors prove lower bounds and impossibility results for converting between tokenizations and validate these findings with experiments on synthetic and real‑world data.

One Model, Many Graphs: Learning over Attributed Graphs across Heterogeneous Modalities with Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2607. 19128v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) provide a unified representation space for textual and visual information, yet their potential as general-purpose backbones for graph-structured data remains largely unexplored.
