Researchers have developed Kernel-Complexity Edge Sanitization (KCES), a novel training-free method to defend graph neural networks (GNNs) against structural attacks. KCES utilizes Graph Kernel Complexity (GKC), a metric derived from the graph Gram matrix, to assign an influence score to each edge. By pruning edges with high KC scores, which are often targeted by adversarial perturbations, KCES mitigates the impact of these attacks without requiring model retraining. This approach is computationally efficient, scalable, and can be integrated with existing defenses, demonstrating consistent performance improvements over baseline methods in extensive experiments.
