TTGBench is a new benchmark for temporal graph learning that evaluates both structural evolution and semantic drift in text‑attributed graphs. It includes six real‑world, text‑rich datasets with dual volatility and supports multi‑class and multi‑label temporal node classification, addressing gaps left by existing benchmarks. A comprehensive evaluation of 17 state‑of‑the‑art methods shows a clear divide: TGNNs excel at structural prediction but struggle with semantic tracking, while LLM‑based models perform better on semantic tasks but lag in structural prediction.

The paper introduces the Graph Dynamics Model (GDM), a world model that learns stochastic latent dynamics over evolving graph topologies. GDM employs a sparse recurrent adjacency matrix for topology updates and a recurrent state‑space architecture for stochastic transitions, enabling it to handle partially observable, stochastic environments. The authors also propose the Graph Distribution Distance (GDD) metric, using maximum mean discrepancy with a graph kernel, to compare predicted and true joint graph state distributions, and demonstrate GDM’s superior performance and zero‑shot generalisation on large graphs.

SiST‑GNN introduces a simultaneous spatial‑temporal message‑passing framework for dynamic graph neural networks, fusing per‑node temporal embeddings with spatial aggregation in a single operation. By maintaining a recurrent hidden state per node and treating it as a cross‑time edge, the model jointly reasons over topology and evolution. Experiments on link‑prediction and node‑classification benchmarks show significant improvements over prior methods, achieving up to 158% gains in live‑update link prediction and outperforming discrete‑time baselines by 7–23% in dynamic node classification.
