Decoupled and Divergence-Conditioned Prompt for Multi-domain Dynamic Graph Foundation Models

Dynamic graphs are ubiquitous in real-world systems, and building generalizable dynamic Graph Foundation Models has become a frontier in graph learning. However, dynamic graphs from different domains pose fundamental challenges to unified modeling, as their semantic and temporal patterns are inherently inconsistent, making the multi-domain pre-training difficult. Consequently, the widely used "pretrain-then-finetune" paradigm often suffers from severe negative knowledge transfer. To the best of our knowledge, there exists no multi-domain dynamic GFM. In this work, we propose DyGFM, a Dynamic Graph Foundation Model over multiple domains based on decoupled and divergence-conditioned prompting. To disentangle transferable semantics from the domain-specific dynamics, we introduce a dual-branch pre-training strategy with semantic-temporal decoupling. To alleviate negative transfer during domain adaptation, we further develop a cross-domain routing mechanism with divergence-aware expert selection. To enable efficient downstream fine-tuning, we design a divergence-conditioned prompt generator that injects lightweight, learnable graph prompts tailored to semantic and temporal traits. Extensive experiments on continuous dynamic graph benchmarks demonstrate that DyGFM consistently outperforms 12 state-of-the-art baselines on both node classification and link prediction tasks, achieving superior effectiveness and efficiency.

Unlocking the Potentials of Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Diffusion Language Models

Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) have recently demonstrated remarkable capabilities in natural language processing tasks. However, the potential of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), which shows great successes for enhancing large language models (LLMs), has not been well explored, due to the fundamental difference between LLM and DLM decoding. To fill this critical gap, we systematically test the performance of DLMs within the RAG framework. Our findings reveal that DLMs coupled with RAG show promising potentials with stronger dependency on contextual information, but suffer from limited generation precision. We identify a key underlying issue: Response Semantic Drift (RSD), where the generated answer progressively deviates from the query's original semantics, leading to low precision content. We trace this problem to the denoising strategies in DLMs, which fail to maintain semantic alignment with the query throughout the iterative denoising process. To address this, we propose Semantic-Preserving REtrieval-Augmented Diffusion (SPREAD), a novel framework that introduces a query-relevance-guided denoising strategy. By actively guiding the denoising trajectory, SPREAD ensures the generation remains anchored to the query's semantics and effectively suppresses drift. Experimental results demonstrate that SPREAD significantly enhances the precision and effectively mitigates RSD of generated answers within the RAG framework.

Automating DBSCAN via Deep Reinforcement Learning

DBSCAN is widely used in many scientific and engineering fields because of its simplicity and practicality. However, due to its high sensitivity parameters, the accuracy of the clustering result depends heavily on practical experience. In this paper, we first propose a novel Deep Reinforcement Learning guided automatic DBSCAN parameters search framework, namely DRL-DBSCAN. The framework models the process of adjusting the parameter search direction by perceiving the clustering environment as a Markov decision process, which aims to find the best clustering parameters without manual assistance. DRL-DBSCAN learns the optimal clustering parameter search policy for different feature distributions via interacting with the clusters, using a weakly-supervised reward training policy network. In addition, we also present a recursive search mechanism driven by the scale of the data to efficiently and controllably process large parameter spaces. Extensive experiments are conducted on five artificial and real-world datasets based on the proposed four working modes. The results of offline and online tasks show that the DRL-DBSCAN not only consistently improves DBSCAN clustering accuracy by up to 26% and 25% respectively, but also can stably find the dominant parameters with high computational efficiency. The code is available at https://github.com/RingBDStack/DRL-DBSCAN.

Position-aware Structure Learning for Graph Topology-imbalance by Relieving Under-reaching and Over-squashing

Topology-imbalance is a graph-specific imbalance problem caused by the uneven topology positions of labeled nodes, which significantly damages the performance of GNNs. What topology-imbalance means and how to measure its impact on graph learning remain under-explored. In this paper, we provide a new understanding of topology-imbalance from a global view of the supervision information distribution in terms of under-reaching and over-squashing, which motivates two quantitative metrics as measurements. In light of our analysis, we propose a novel position-aware graph structure learning framework named PASTEL, which directly optimizes the information propagation path and solves the topology-imbalance issue in essence. Our key insight is to enhance the connectivity of nodes within the same class for more supervision information, thereby relieving the under-reaching and over-squashing phenomena. Specifically, we design an anchor-based position encoding mechanism, which better incorporates relative topology position and enhances the intra-class inductive bias by maximizing the label influence. We further propose a class-wise conflict measure as the edge weights, which benefits the separation of different node classes. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superior potential and adaptability of PASTEL in enhancing GNNs' power in different data annotation scenarios.

Self-organization Preserved Graph Structure Learning with Principle of Relevant Information

Most Graph Neural Networks follow the message-passing paradigm, assuming the observed structure depicts the ground-truth node relationships. However, this fundamental assumption cannot always be satisfied, as real-world graphs are always incomplete, noisy, or redundant. How to reveal the inherent graph structure in a unified way remains under-explored. We proposed PRI-GSL, a Graph Structure Learning framework guided by the Principle of Relevant Information, providing a simple and unified framework for identifying the self-organization and revealing the hidden structure. PRI-GSL learns a structure that contains the most relevant yet least redundant information quantified by von Neumann entropy and Quantum Jensen-Shannon divergence. PRI-GSL incorporates the evolution of quantum continuous walk with graph wavelets to encode node structural roles, showing in which way the nodes interplay and self-organize with the graph structure. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superior effectiveness and robustness of PRI-GSL.

Pairwise Learning for Name Disambiguation in Large-Scale Heterogeneous Academic Networks

Name disambiguation aims to identify unique authors with the same name. Existing name disambiguation methods always exploit author attributes to enhance disambiguation results. However, some discriminative author attributes (e.g., email and affiliation) may change because of graduation or job-hopping, which will result in the separation of the same author's papers in digital libraries. Although these attributes may change, an author's co-authors and research topics do not change frequently with time, which means that papers within a period have similar text and relation information in the academic network. Inspired by this idea, we introduce Multi-view Attention-based Pairwise Recurrent Neural Network (MA-PairRNN) to solve the name disambiguation problem. We divided papers into small blocks based on discriminative author attributes and blocks of the same author will be merged according to pairwise classification results of MA-PairRNN. MA-PairRNN combines heterogeneous graph embedding learning and pairwise similarity learning into a framework. In addition to attribute and structure information, MA-PairRNN also exploits semantic information by meta-path and generates node representation in an inductive way, which is scalable to large graphs. Furthermore, a semantic-level attention mechanism is adopted to fuse multiple meta-path based representations. A Pseudo-Siamese network consisting of two RNNs takes two paper sequences in publication time order as input and outputs their similarity. Results on two real-world datasets demonstrate that our framework has a significant and consistent improvement of performance on the name disambiguation task. It was also demonstrated that MA-PairRNN can perform well with a small amount of training data and have better generalization ability across different research areas.

How to Close Sim-Real Gap? Transfer with Segmentation!

One fundamental difficulty in robotic learning is the sim-real gap problem. In this work, we propose to use segmentation as the interface between perception and control, as a domain-invariant state representation. We identify two sources of sim-real gap, one is dynamics sim-real gap, the other is visual sim-real gap. To close dynamics sim-real gap, we propose to use closed-loop control. For complex task with segmentation mask input, we further propose to learn a closed-loop model-free control policy with deep neural network using imitation learning. To close visual sim-real gap, we propose to learn a perception model in real environment using simulated target plus real background image, without using any real world supervision. We demonstrate this methodology in eye-in-hand grasping task. We train a closed-loop control policy model that taking the segmentation as input using simulation. We show that this control policy is able to transfer from simulation to real environment. The closed-loop control policy is not only robust with respect to discrepancies between the dynamic model of the simulated and real robot, but also is able to generalize to unseen scenarios where the target is moving and even learns to recover from failures. We train the perception segmentation model using training data generated by composing real background images with simulated images of the target. Combining the control policy learned from simulation with the perception model, we achieve an impressive $\bf{88\%}$ success rate in grasping a tiny sphere with a real robot.

Stochastic Modified Equations for Continuous Limit of Stochastic ADMM

Stochastic version of alternating direction method of multiplier (ADMM) and its variants (linearized ADMM, gradient-based ADMM) plays a key role for modern large scale machine learning problems. One example is the regularized empirical risk minimization problem. In this work, we put different variants of stochastic ADMM into a unified form, which includes standard, linearized and gradient-based ADMM with relaxation, and study their dynamics via a continuous-time model approach. We adapt the mathematical framework of stochastic modified equation (SME), and show that the dynamics of stochastic ADMM is approximated by a class of stochastic differential equations with small noise parameters in the sense of weak approximation. The continuous-time analysis would uncover important analytical insights into the behaviors of the discrete-time algorithm, which are non-trivial to gain otherwise. For example, we could characterize the fluctuation of the solution paths precisely, and decide optimal stopping time to minimize the variance of solution paths.
