Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are powerful tools for learning on structured data, yet the relationship between their expressivity and predictive performance remains unclear. We introduce a family of pseudometrics that capture different degrees of structural similarity between graphs and relate these…
We introduce $r$-loopy Weisfeiler-Leman ($r$-$\ell$WL), a novel hierarchy of graph isomorphism tests and a corresponding GNN framework, $r$-$\ell$MPNN, that can count cycles up to length $r{+}2$. Most notably, we show that $r$-$\ell$WL can count homomorphisms of cactus graphs. This extends 1-WL, whi…
Graph neural networks (GNNs) have shown state-of-the-art performances in various applications. However, GNNs often struggle to capture long-range dependencies in graphs due to oversmoothing. In this paper, we generalize the concept of oversmoothing from undirected to directed graphs. To this aim, we…
A powerful framework for studying graphs is to consider them as geometric graphs: nodes are randomly sampled from an underlying metric space, and any pair of nodes is connected if their distance is less than a specified neighborhood radius. Currently, the literature mostly focuses on uniform samplin…
