2026 When Deepfake Detection Meets Graph Neural Network: A Unified and Lightweight Framework
abstract
The proliferation of generative video models has made detecting AI-generated and manipulated videos an urgent challenge. Existing detection approaches often fail to generalize across diverse manipulation types due to their reliance on isolated spatial, temporal, or spectral information, and typically require large models to perform well. This paper introduces SSTGNN, a lightweight Spatial-Spectral-Temporal Graph Neural Network framework that represents videos as structured graphs, enabling joint reasoning over spatial inconsistencies, temporal artifacts, and spectral distortions. SSTGNN incorporates learnable spectral filters and spatial-temporal differential modeling into a unified graph-based architecture, capturing subtle manipulation traces more effectively. Extensive experiments on diverse benchmark datasets demonstrate that SSTGNN not only achieves superior performance in both in-domain and cross-domain settings, but also offers strong efficiency and resource allocation. Remarkably, SSTGNN accomplishes these results with up to 42× fewer parameters than state-of-the-art models, making it highly lightweight and resource-friendly for real-world deployment.

2025 SIGMA: An Efficient Heterophilous Graph Neural Network with Fast Global Aggregation
abstract
Graph neural networks (GNNs) realize great success in graph learning but suffer from performance loss when meeting heterophily, i.e. neighboring nodes are dissimilar, due to their local and uniform aggregation. Existing attempts of heterophilous GNNs incorporate long-range or global aggregations to distinguish nodes in the graph. However, these aggregations usually require iteratively maintaining and updating full-graph information, which limits their efficiency when applying to large-scale graphs. In this paper, we propose SIGMA, an efficient global heterophilous GNN aggregation integrating the structural similarity measurement SimRank. Our theoretical analysis illustrates that SIGMA inherently captures distant global similarity even under heterophily, that conventional approaches can only achieve after iterative aggregations. Furthermore, it enjoys efficient one-time computation with a complexity only linear to the node set size$O(n)$. Comprehensive evaluation demonstrates that SIGMA achieves state-of-the-art performance with superior aggregation and overall efficiency. Notably, it obtains 5 x acceleration on the large-scale heterophily dataset pokec with over 30 million edges compared to the best baseline aggregation.

2025 A Comprehensive Benchmark on Spectral GNNs: The Impact on Efficiency, Memory, and Effectiveness
abstract
With recent advancements in graph neural networks (GNNs), spectral GNNs have received increasing popularity by virtue of their ability to retrieve graph signals in the spectral domain. These models feature uniqueness in efficient computation as well as rich expressiveness, which stems from advanced management and profound understanding of graph data. However, few systematic studies have been conducted to assess spectral GNNs, particularly in benchmarking their efficiency, memory consumption, and effectiveness in a unified and fair manner. There is also a pressing need to select spectral models suitable for learning specific graph data and deploying them to massive web-scale graphs, which is currently constrained by the varied model designs and training settings. In this work, we extensively benchmark spectral GNNs with a focus on the spectral perspective, demystifying them as spectral graph filters. We analyze and categorize 35 GNNs with 27 corresponding filters, spanning diverse formulations and utilizations of the graph data. Then, we implement the filters within a unified spectral-oriented framework with dedicated graph computations and efficient training schemes. In particular, our implementation enables the deployment of spectral GNNs over million-scale graphs and various tasks with comparable performance and less overhead. Thorough experiments are conducted on the graph filters with comprehensive metrics on effectiveness and efficiency, offering novel observations and practical guidelines that are only available from our evaluations across graph scales. Different from the prevailing belief, our benchmark reveals an intricate landscape regarding the effectiveness and efficiency of spectral graph filters, demonstrating the potential to achieve desirable performance through tailored spectral manipulation of graph data.

2024 Topology-monitorable Contrastive Learning on Dynamic Graphs
abstract
Graph contrastive learning is a representative self-supervised graph learning that has demonstrated excellent performance in learning node representations. Despite the extensive studies on graph con- trastive learning models, most existing models are tailored to static graphs, hindering their application to real-world graphs which are often dynamically evolving. Directly applying these models to dynamic graphs brings in severe efficiency issues in repetitively updating the learned embeddings. To address this challenge, we propose IDOL, a novel contrastive learning framework for dynamic graph representation learning. IDOL conducts the graph propagation process based on a specially designed Personalized PageRank algorithm which can capture the topological changes incrementally. This effectively eliminates heavy recomputation while maintain- ing high learning quality. Our another main design is a topology-monitorable sampling strategy which lays the foundation of graph contrastive learning. We further show that the design in IDOL achieves a desired performance guarantee. Our experimental results on multiple dynamic graphs show that IDOL outperforms the strongest baselines on node classification tasks in various performance metrics.

2024 BIRD: Efficient Approximation of Bidirectional Hidden Personalized PageRank
abstract
In bipartite graph analysis, similarity measures play a pivotal role in various applications. Among existing metrics, the Bidirectional Hidden Personalized PageRank (BHPP) stands out for its superior query quality. However, the computational expense of BHPP remains a bottleneck. Existing approximation methods either demand significant matrix storage or incur prohibitive time costs. For example, current state-of-the-art methods require over 3 hours to process a single-source BHPP query on the real-world bipartite graph Orkut , which contains approximately 3 × 10 8 edges. We introduce BIRD, a novel algorithm designed for answering single-source BHPP queries on weighted bipartite graphs. Through meticulous theoretical analysis, we demonstrate that BIRD significantly improves time complexity to Õ ( n ), as compared to the previous best one, Õ ( m ), under typical relative error setting and constant failure probability. ( n, m denote the number of nodes and edges respectively.) Extensive experiments confirm that BIRD outperforms existing baselines by orders of magnitude in large-scale bipartite graphs. Notably, our proposed method accomplishes a single-source BHPP query on Orkut using merely 7 minutes.
