GraphIFE: Rethinking Graph Imbalance Node Classification via Invariant Learning

GraphIFE addresses the class imbalance problem in graph-structured data by tackling a quality inconsistency issue in synthesized nodes. The framework uses graph invariant learning to strengthen embedding space representations and identify invariant features, leading to improved performance on minority classes. Experiments show that GraphIFE consistently outperforms various baselines across multiple datasets.

MUGEN: Generating Unlearnable Graph Examples for Multiple Learning Tasks

MUGEN is a framework that generates unlearnable graph examples capable of protecting multiple downstream tasks—node classification, graph classification, and link prediction—simultaneously. It achieves this by perturbing a single clean dataset with a shared GNN encoder and task‑specific heads, guided by a Task‑Aligned Separability Objective (TASO) and a Type‑Adaptive Perturbation (TAP) that handles both discrete and continuous node attributes. Experiments on five benchmarks, four GNN backbones, and three learning paradigms show that MUGEN’s perturbations transfer across models and remain effective even under adversarial training and data augmentation.
