TI-ODE: A New Approach for Dynamic Graph Representation Learning

other · 2026-04-30

Researchers propose Time-varying Interaction Graph Ordinary Differential Equations (TI-ODE) to address limitations in existing graph neural ODEs for dynamic graph representation learning. Current graph neural ODEs use a unified message passing mechanism, assuming inter-node interactions share the same function at any time, which fails to capture the diversity and time-varying nature of interaction patterns. TI-ODE decomposes the evolution function into a set of learnable interaction basis functions, each corresponding to a distinct type of inter-node interaction, combined through time-dependent learnable weights. The method is detailed in arXiv preprint 2604.24811.
