Beyond ReLU: Bifurcation, Oversmoothing, and Topological Priors

ICML 2026spotlight

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) learn node representations through iterative network-based message-passing. While powerful, deep GNNs suffer from oversmoothing, where node features converge to a homogeneous, non-informative state. We re-frame this problem of representational collapse from a \emph{bifur…

Graph Alignment via Dual-Pass Spectral Encoding and Latent Space Communication

ICML 2026poster

Graph alignment, the problem of identifying corresponding nodes across multiple graphs, is fundamental to numerous applications. Most existing unsupervised methods embed node features into latent representations to enable cross-graph comparison without ground-truth correspondences. However, these me…

Unfolding Generative Flows with Koopman Operators: Trajectory-Preserving Linearization

ICML 2026poster

Continuous Normalizing Flows (CNFs) enable elegant generative modeling but remain bottlenecked by their iterative nature requiring costly sampling and lacking interpretability of the intermediate states. Recent approaches accelerate sampling by straightening trajectories or distilling endpoints, yet…
