HOPPER framework enhances graph sequence models with learnable hop extraction

Researchers have introduced HOPPER, a novel framework designed to enhance Linearized Graph Sequence Models (LGSMs). Unlike previous LGSMs that rely on fixed graph operators, HOPPER enables end-to-end learning of hop sequences, allowing for adaptive propagation mechanisms tailored to specific graph structures, node features, and downstream tasks. This approach preserves permutation equivariance and has demonstrated state-of-the-art or competitive performance on benchmarks like ECHO-Synth and LRIM, particularly in handling long-range dependencies in graph representation learning.

    HOPPER: Learnable Hop Extraction for Linearized Graph Sequence Models

    arXiv:2608.09031v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph neural networks typically propagate information through repeated message-passing layers, coupling the distance over which information travels with the number of nonlinear transformations applied. This coupling can make deep ar…
