Homophily-Heterogeneity Gradient Surgery for Federated Graph Learning

ICML 2026poster

Federated Graph Learning (FGL) facilitates privacy-preserving collaborative training of graph neural networks, yet homophily heterogeneity across subgraphs triggers optimization conflicts that degrade model generalization. Most existing solutions rely on multi-channel architectures to mitigate such …

Beyond Federated Prototype Learning: Learnable Semantic Anchors with Hyperspherical Contrast for Domain-Skewed Data

AAAI 2025technical

Federated prototype learning is in the spotlight as global prototypes are effective in enhancing the learning of local representation spaces, facilitating the ability to generalize the global model. However, when encountering domain-skewed data, conventional federated prototype learning is susceptib…

Clients Collaborate: Flexible Differentially Private Federated Learning with Guaranteed Improvement of Utility-Privacy Trade-off

ICML 2025poster

To defend against privacy leakage of user data, differential privacy is widely used in federated learning, but it is not free. The addition of noise randomly disrupts the semantic integrity of the model and this disturbance accumulates with increased communication rounds. In this paper, we introduce…

FedBG: Proactively Mitigating Bias in Cross-Domain Graph Federated Learning Using Background Data

IJCAI 2025

Federated graph learning is focused on aggregating knowledge from multi-source graph data and training graph neural networks. Unlike the data that traditional federated learning needs to deal with, federated graph learning also needs to face additional topological information. Further, there are als

Federated Domain Generalization with Decision Insight Matrix

IJCAI 2025

Federated domain generalization addresses the crucial challenge of developing models that can generalize across diverse domains while maintaining data privacy in federated learning settings. Current approaches either compromise privacy constraints or focus narrowly on specific aspects of model invar

GLNCD: Graph-Level Novel Category Discovery

NeurIPS 2025poster

Graph classification has long assumed a closed-world setting, limiting its applicability to real-world scenarios where new categories often emerge. To address this limitation, we introduce Graph-Level Novel Category Discovery (GLNCD), a new task aimed at identifying unseen graph categories without s…

Going Beyond Consistency: Target-oriented Multi-view Graph Neural Network

IJCAI 2025

Multi‐view learning has emerged as a pivotal research area driven by the growing heterogeneity of real‐world data, and graph neural network-based models, modeling multi-view data as multi-view graphs, have achieved remarkable performance by revealing its deep semantics. However, by assuming cross‐vi

Soft-consensual Federated Learning for Data Heterogeneity via Multiple Paths

NeurIPS 2025poster

Federated learning enables collaborative training while preserving the privacy of all participants. However, the heterogeneity in data distribution across multiple training nodes poses significant challenges to the construction of federated models. Prior studies were dedicated to mitigating the effe…

THESAURUS: Contrastive Graph Clustering by Swapping Fused Gromov-Wasserstein Couplings

AAAI 2025technical

Graph node clustering is a fundamental unsupervised task. Existing methods typically train an encoder through self-supervised learning and then apply K-means to the encoder output. Some methods use this clustering result directly as the final assignment, while others initialize centroids based on th…

Towards Understanding Parametric Generalized Category Discovery on Graphs

ICML 2025poster

Generalized Category Discovery (GCD) aims to identify both known and novel categories in unlabeled data by leveraging knowledge from old classes. However, existing methods are limited to non-graph data; lack theoretical foundations to answer *When and how known classes can help GCD*. We introduce th…
