Geometric Flow enhanced Graph Coarsening

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces RicciPool, a graph pooling method that incorporates higher‑order connectivity via Ollivier‑Ricci curvature to reweight edges before spectral clustering. Unlike traditional pooling approaches that focus only on rough topology, RicciPool leverages local connection information to improve cluster assignment. Experiments on protein and social network datasets demonstrate its effectiveness.

Learning and Clustering on Temporal Graphs: Principles, Primitives, and Pooling

arXiv:2608. 03696v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work focuses on the problem of learning on temporal graphs, with particular emphasis on the task of clustering: obtaining coarse-grained representations by aggregating information from nodes, edges, and temporal dynamics - a task related to pooling in machine learning on graphs, or community detection in network science.

Local-Global Geometric Insights for Graph Neural Networks via Entropic Curvature

arXiv:2607. 22381v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Curvature notions on graphs, particularly Ollivier-Ricci and Forman, have emerged as powerful tools for addressing fundamental issues in Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) such as oversmoothing and oversquashing, but rely almost exclusively on local edge-level comparisons and therefore fail to certify how information actually propagates over long distances.

CoRe-GNN: Multilevel Message passing on Coarsened graphs

Training Graph Neural Networks on large graphs is challenged by the memory cost of storing all node representations across layers. We show that several existing scalable approaches can be written as structured modifications of the GNN propagation matrix, providing a unified perspective that exposes their respective limitations.

Inductive Correlation Clustering with Graph Neural Networks

The paper introduces Inductive Correlation Clustering, a new framework that uses Graph Neural Networks to solve the Correlation Clustering problem on unseen graph instances. By learning common structural patterns and node features, the method generalizes to new graphs with minimal computational overhead, achieving inference times up to five orders of magnitude faster while maintaining an approximation ratio within about 10% of the best baseline. It also demonstrates competitive performance on standard transductive benchmarks and serves as an efficient learnable pooling layer for graph classification tasks.
