New Aggregation Buffer Enhances GNN Robustness Beyond DropEdge

Researchers have introduced the Aggregation Buffer, a new parameter block designed to enhance the robustness of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). This method aims to improve upon DropEdge, a data augmentation technique that randomly removes edges during training. The Aggregation Buffer addresses a fundamental limitation in many GNN architectures that restricts DropEdge's performance gains. The proposed solution is compatible with existing GNN models and has demonstrated consistent performance improvements across various datasets, while also mitigating issues like degree bias and structural disparity.

    Aggregation Buffer: Revisiting DropEdge with a New Parameter Block

    arXiv:2505.20840v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We revisit DropEdge, a data augmentation technique for GNNs which randomly removes edges to expose diverse graph structures during training. While being a promising approach to effectively reduce overfitting on specific connecti…
