The paper introduces CoTeach, a confidence‑aware dual‑teacher learning framework for few‑shot node classification on text‑attributed graphs. It dynamically chooses between a Graph Neural Network and a Large Language Model as the teacher for each node, based on which source is more reliable for that node. Experiments show that this approach improves classification accuracy while cutting unnecessary use of expensive LLMs.

The paper examines a multimodal approach that combines a self‑supervised GNN encoder with an alternating optimization scheme involving a language‑model teacher. Despite the expectation that this joint strategy would enhance predictive performance, the authors find that the combined model fails to deliver significant gains. They identify six key factors—ranging from anchor strength trade‑offs to misaligned representation spaces—that explain why the integration of text knowledge does not fully benefit graph learning.

PACE introduces a propagation‑aware collaborative correction for one‑shot personalized federated graph learning. Each client sends a rank‑r update and a diagonal sketch of message moments, allowing the server to construct a correction that anchors to the receiver’s local model. A convex negative‑log‑likelihood calibration selects a single coefficient to blend local and external logits, improving accuracy and weighted‑F1 on most datasets while preserving local predictions when the correction is unhelpful.

arXiv:2606. 10249v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We examine whether graph neural network (GNN) design rules generalize across benchmark families by studying aggregator selection (sum, mean, max) on 24 node-classification datasets spanning citation, heterophilic, LINKX Facebook-100, co-purchase, and co-authorship graphs.

Text-attributed graphs (TAGs) are an important graph data form that combine relational structure with rich node text. However, real-world TAGs are often imperfect, with quality issues arising from text, structure, and labels, and typically manifesting as sparsity, noise, and imbalance.
