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.

arXiv:2607. 17272v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Node representation learning has advanced rapidly, yet most existing methods rely on per-dataset training and hyperparameter tuning.

The paper introduces Selective Hypergraph Refinement (SHR), a post‑processing technique for frozen graph clustering models that does not alter model parameters, node representations, or the original graph. SHR uses an attribute hypergraph to generate candidate refinement directions and selectively updates only nodes with sufficient support, preserving the majority of original assignments. Experiments on 15 backbone‑dataset combinations show modest macro gains (up to 0.137 pp) with very few hard assignment changes, indicating a limited but measurable refinement space after training.

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.

SynCo is a synthetic graph generator that lets users control node degree distributions and sub‑community structures, addressing limitations of existing generators that rely on power‑law distributions and lack flexibility. It is evaluated on graph mimicking, hyperparameter tuning, and node clustering, outperforming state‑of‑the‑art methods while preserving original data distributions. SynCo can generate large graphs with up to 2.1 million nodes.
