Subgraph Invariant Learning Towards Large-Scale Graph Node Classification
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown efficacy in graph node classification, but face computational challenges on large-scale graphs. Although existing graph reduction methods address these issues, they still require high computational resources and fail to prioritize robust performance on out-of-distribution data. To tackle these challenges, we introduce the subgraph invariant learning paradigm, inspired by the small-world phenomenon. This approach enables models trained on specific subgraphs to generalize across diverse subgraphs, reducing computational demands, and enhancing scalability. To promote generalization, we maximize the invariance log-likelihood by deriving a theoretical lower bound of it and formulating the InVar loss. This loss minimizes the discrepancy between node representations and their corresponding invariance representations while maximizing the entropy of the node representation. In response to InVar loss, we propose the Invariance Facilitation Model (IFM), comprising the Invariance Representation Encoder (IRE) and Node Representation Encoder (NRE). IRE, capturing the invariance representations, utilizes Invariance ATTention (InvarATT) to compress long-range dependencies, while NRE learns the node representation, by integrating invariance representations via Telematic ATTention (TeleATT) and exchanging local information within each subgraph through GNNs. Evaluations on four large-scale graph datasets demonstrate the effectiveness, computational efficiency, and interpretability of IFM for large-scale graph node classification.

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.
