Are We Measuring Oversmoothing in Graph Neural Networks Correctly?

Kaicheng Zhang, Piero Deidda, Desmond Higham +1

Oversmoothing is a fundamental challenge in graph neural networks (GNNs): as the number of layers increases, node embeddings become increasingly similar, and model performance drop…

Stuart-Landau Oscillatory Graph Neural Network

Kaicheng Zhang, David N. Reynolds, Piero Deidda +1

Oscillatory Graph Neural Networks (OGNNs) are an emerging class of physics-inspired architectures designed to mitigate oversmoothing and vanishing gradient problems in deep GNNs. I…

Provable Emergence of Deep Neural Collapse and Low-Rank Bias in -Regularized Nonlinear Networks

Emanuele Zangrando, Piero Deidda, Simone Brugiapaglia +2

We present a unified theoretical framework connecting the first property of Deep Neural Collapse (DNC1) to the emergence of implicit low-rank bias in nonlinear networks trained wit…

Nonlinear Joint Spectral Radius

Piero Deidda, Nicola Guglielmi, Francesco Tudisco

We introduce a nonlinear extension of the joint spectral radius (JSR) for switched discrete-time dynamical systems governed by sub-homogeneous and order-preserving maps acting on c…

Nonlinear spectral graph theory

Piero Deidda, Francesco Tudisco, Dong Zhang

Nonlinear spectral graph theory is an extension of the traditional (linear) spectral graph theory and studies relationships between spectral properties of nonlinear operators defin…
