Entropy-Aware Time-Varying Graph Neural Networks with Generalized Temporal Hawkes Process: Dynamic Link Prediction in the Presence of Node Addition and Deletion
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper addresses the problem of learning temporal graph representations, which capture the changing nature of complex evolving networks. Existing approaches mainly focus on adding new nodes and edges to capture dynamic graph structures. However, to achieve more accurate representation of graph evolution, we consider both the addition and deletion of nodes and edges as events. These events occur at irregular time scales and are modeled using temporal point processes. Our goal is to learn the conditional intensity function of the temporal point process to investigate the influence of deletion events on node representation learning for link-level prediction. We incorporate network entropy, a measure of node and edge significance, to capture the effect of node deletion and edge removal in our framework. Additionally, we leveraged the characteristics of a generalized temporal Hawkes process, which considers the inhibitory effects of events where past occurrences can reduce future intensity. This framework enables dynamic representation learning by effectively modeling both addition and deletion events in the temporal graph. To evaluate our approach, we utilize autonomous system graphs, a family of inhomogeneous sparse graphs with instances of node and edge additions and deletions, in a link prediction task. By integrating these enhancements into our framework, we improve the accuracy of dynamic link prediction and enable better understanding of the dynamic evolution of complex networks.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
