Graph Diffusion Models Found to Exhibit Conditional Memorization

Researchers have demonstrated that discrete graph diffusion models (GDMs), which are designed to generate novel graphs by adding noise to existing structures, can exhibit memorization. When trained on specific types of graphs (stochastic block models), these models show a strong bias towards reconstructing corrupted training data rather than generalizing to new, unseen graphs. This phenomenon, termed conditional memorization, appears to be linked to a widening generalization gap and occurs before any discernible community structure emerges in the generated graphs. AI

IMPACT Reveals a potential limitation in generative graph models, suggesting a need for further research into generalization and memorization in these architectures.
