Global Communication or Graph-Specific Memory?

Hamed Shirzad, Danica J. Sutherland

Scalable Graph Transformers are commonly trained and evaluated on static large graphs in a transductive setup. Many scalable Graph Transformer components can be formulated as a con…

SeedER: Seed-Expand-Retrieve for Efficient Knowledge Graph Retrieval

Hamed Shirzad, Frederik Wenkel, Dominique Beaini +2

Knowledge graphs (KGs) offer a rich representation for relational knowledge, but their irregular structure makes retrieval challenging: ego-graph expansion grows rapidly, and dense…

TxPert: Leveraging Biochemical Relationships for Out-of-Distribution Transcriptomic Perturbation Prediction

Frederik Wenkel, Wilson Tu, Cassandra Masschelein +12

Accurately predicting cellular responses to genetic perturbations is essential for understanding disease mechanisms and designing effective therapies. Yet exhaustively exploring th…

Even Sparser Graph Transformers

Hamed Shirzad, Honghao Lin, Balaji Venkatachalam +3

Graph Transformers excel in long-range dependency modeling, but generally require quadratic memory complexity in the number of nodes in an input graph, and hence have trouble scali…

A Theory for Compressibility of Graph Transformers for Transductive Learning

Hamed Shirzad, Honghao Lin, Ameya Velingker +3

Transductive tasks on graphs differ fundamentally from typical supervised machine learning tasks, as the independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) assumption does not hold a…

Exphormer: Sparse Transformers for Graphs

Hamed Shirzad, Ameya Velingker, Balaji Venkatachalam +2

Graph transformers have emerged as a promising architecture for a variety of graph learning and representation tasks. Despite their successes, though, it remains challenging to sca…

Evaluating Graph Generative Models with Contrastively Learned Features

Hamed Shirzad, Kaveh Hassani, Danica J. Sutherland

A wide range of models have been proposed for Graph Generative Models, necessitating effective methods to evaluate their quality. So far, most techniques use either traditional met…

TD-GEN: Graph Generation With Tree Decomposition

Hamed Shirzad, Hossein Hajimirsadeghi, Amir H. Abdi +1

We propose TD-GEN, a graph generation framework based on tree decomposition, and introduce a reduced upper bound on the maximum number of decisions needed for graph generation. The…
