GDGB: A Benchmark for Generative Dynamic Text-Attributed Graph Learning

ICLR 2026poster

Dynamic Text-Attributed Graphs (DyTAGs), which intricately integrate structural, temporal, and textual attributes, are crucial for modeling complex real-world systems. However, most existing DyTAG datasets exhibit poor textual quality, which severely limits their utility for generative DyTAG tasks r…

Robustness in Text-Attributed Graph Learning: Insights, Trade-offs, and New Defenses

ICLR 2026poster

While Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and Large Language Models (LLMs) are powerful approaches for learning on Text-Attributed Graphs (TAGs), a comprehensive understanding of their robustness remains elusive. Current evaluations are fragmented, failing to systematically investigate the distinct effect…

Future Link Prediction Without Memory or Aggregation

NeurIPS 2025poster

Future link prediction on temporal graphs is a fundamental task with wide applicability in real-world dynamic systems. These scenarios often involve both recurring (seen) and novel (unseen) interactions, requiring models to generalize effectively across both types of edges. However, existing methods…

LLM-Based Multi-Agent Systems are Scalable Graph Generative Models

ACL 2025finding

The structural properties of naturally arising social graphs are extensively studied to understand their evolution. Prior approaches for modeling network dynamics typically rely on rule-based models, which lack realism and generalizability, or deep learning-based models, which require large-scale tr…

Intruding with Words: Towards Understanding Graph Injection Attacks at the Text Level

NeurIPS 2024poster

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) excel across various applications but remain vulnerable to adversarial attacks, particularly Graph Injection Attacks (GIAs), which inject malicious nodes into the original graph and pose realistic threats. Text-attributed graphs (TAGs), where nodes are associated with te…

PolyGCL: GRAPH CONTRASTIVE LEARNING via Learnable Spectral Polynomial Filters

ICLR 2024spotlight

Recently, Graph Contrastive Learning (GCL) has achieved significantly superior performance in self-supervised graph representation learning. However, the existing GCL technique has inherent smooth characteristics because of its low-pass GNN encoder and objective based on homophily assumption, which…

EvenNet: Ignoring Odd-Hop Neighbors Improves Robustness of Graph Neural Networks

NeurIPS 2022accept

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have received extensive research attention for their promising performance in graph machine learning. Despite their extraordinary predictive accuracy, existing approaches, such as GCN and GPRGNN, are not robust in the face of homophily changes on test graphs, rendering t…
