FoundAna: A GNN-assisted Foundation Model for Graph Anomaly Detection

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 Target-Time Normality Estimation for Zero-Shot Graph Anomaly Detection

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.
