Fine-Grained Graph Generation through Latent Mixture Scheduling

Structure aware graph generation aims to generate graphs that satisfy given topological properties. It has applications in domains such as drug discovery, social network modeling, and knowledge graph construction. Unlike existing methods that only provide coarse control over graph properties, we introduce a novel conditional variational autoencoder for fine-grained structural control in graph generation. The approach refines the decoder's latent space by dynamically aligning graph- and property-driven representations to improve both graph fidelity and control satisfaction. Specifically, the approach implements a mixture scheduler that progressively integrates graph and control priors. Experiments on five real-world datasets show the efficacy of the proposed model compared to recent baselines, achieving high generation quality while maintaining high controllability.

FROG: Fair Removal on Graphs

With growing emphasis on privacy regulations, machine unlearning has become increasingly critical in real-world applications such as social networks and recommender systems, many of which are naturally represented as graphs. However, existing graph unlearning methods often modify nodes or edges indiscriminately, overlooking their impact on fairness. For instance, forgetting links between users of different genders may inadvertently exacerbate group disparities. To address this issue, we propose a novel framework that jointly optimizes both the graph structure and the model to achieve fair unlearning. Our method rewires the graph by removing redundant edges that hinder forgetting while preserving fairness through targeted edge augmentation. We further introduce a worst-case evaluation mechanism to assess robustness under challenging scenarios. Experiments on real-world datasets show that our approach achieves more effective and fair unlearning than existing baselines.

Investigating Tool-Memory Conflicts in Tool-Augmented LLMs

Tool-augmented large language models (LLMs) have powered many applications. However, they are likely to suffer from knowledge conflict. In this paper, we propose a new type of knowledge conflict -- Tool-Memory Conflict (TMC), where the internal parametric knowledge contradicts with the external tool knowledge for tool-augmented LLMs. We find that existing LLMs, though powerful, suffer from TMC, especially on STEM-related tasks. We also uncover that under different conditions, tool knowledge and parametric knowledge may be prioritized differently. We then evaluate existing conflict resolving techniques, including prompting-based and RAG-based methods. Results show that none of these approaches can effectively resolve tool-memory conflicts.

Toward Understanding Unlearning Difficulty: A Mechanistic Perspective and Circuit-Guided Difficulty Metric

Machine unlearning is becoming essential for building trustworthy and compliant language models. Yet unlearning success varies considerably across individual samples: some are reliably erased, while others persist despite the same procedure. We argue that this disparity is not only a data-side phenomenon, but also reflects model-internal mechanisms that encode and protect memorized information. We study this problem from a mechanistic perspective based on model circuits--structured interaction pathways that govern how predictions are formed. We propose Circuit-guided Unlearning Difficulty (CUD), a {\em pre-unlearning} metric that assigns each sample a continuous difficulty score using circuit-level signals. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CUD reliably separates intrinsically easy and hard samples, and remains stable across unlearning methods. We identify key circuit-level patterns that reveal a mechanistic signature of difficulty: easy-to-unlearn samples are associated with shorter, shallower interactions concentrated in earlier-to-intermediate parts of the original model, whereas hard samples rely on longer and deeper pathways closer to late-stage computation. Compared to existing qualitative studies, CUD takes a first step toward a principled, fine-grained, and interpretable analysis of unlearning difficulty; and motivates the development of unlearning methods grounded in model mechanisms.

Generic and Trend-aware Curriculum Learning for Relation Extraction in Graph Neural Networks

We present a generic and trend-aware curriculum learning approach for graph neural networks. It extends existing approaches by incorporating sample-level loss trends to better discriminate easier from harder samples and schedule them for training. The model effectively integrates textual and structural information for relation extraction in text graphs. Experimental results show that the model provides robust estimations of sample difficulty and shows sizable improvement over the state-of-the-art approaches across several datasets.

Log-sum-exp optimization problem subjected to Lukasiewicz fuzzy relational inequalities

In this paper, we introduce a nonlinear optimization problem whose objective function is the convex log-sum-exp function and the feasible region is defined as a system of fuzzy relational inequalities (FRI) defined by the Lukasiewicz t-norm. Some necessary and sufficient conditions are derived to determine the feasibility of the problem. The feasible solution set is characterized in terms of a finite number of closed convex cells. Since the feasible solutions set of FRIs is non-convex, conventional methods may not be directly employed. An algorithm is presented for solving this nonlinear problem. It is proved that the algorithm can find the exact optimal solution and an example is presented to illustrate the proposed algorithm.

On the resolution and Linear programming problems subjected by Aczel-Alsina Fuzzy relational equations

Aczel-Alsina t-norm belongs to the family of strict t-norms that are the most applied fuzzy operators in various fuzzy modelling problems. In this paper, we study a linear optimization problem where the feasible region is formed as a system of fuzzy relational equations (FRE) defined by the Aczel-Alsina t-norm. Since the feasible solutions set of FREs is non-convex and the finding of all minimal solutions is an NP-hard problem, conventional methods may not be directly employed. The resolution of the feasible region is completely investigated. Based on some theoretical properties of the problem, an algorithm is presented to find all the optimal solutions, and finally an example is described to illustrate this algorithm.
