Forget Less, Generalize More: Unifying Temporal and Structural Adaptation for Dynamic Graphs

Representation learning on dynamic graphs requires capturing complex dependencies that evolve across both time and structure. Existing approaches typically adopt fixed temporal decay schemes or predetermined structural propagation depths, limiting their ability to generalize across graphs with diverse interaction frequencies and topological characteristics. We propose Dual-Scale Retentive Dynamics (DSRD), a unified framework that maintains a retentive representation state encoding both temporal memory and structural context. DSRD introduces two key components: (i) a retentive state with dual-scale adaptation that jointly models temporal dynamics and structural propagation within a single recurrent formulation, and (ii) adaptive decay kernels with learnable time-sensitivity parameters that automatically balance short-term responsiveness and long-term retention based on the underlying interaction patterns. We provide theoretical analysis establishing the equivalence between event-wise parallel aggregation and efficient recurrent state updates, as well as stability and boundedness guarantees for the learned dynamics. Extensive experiments on 14 real-world benchmarks demonstrate that DSRD consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance on both link prediction and node classification tasks, with strong generalization across transductive and inductive settings.

Graph Retention Networks for Dynamic Graphs

In this paper, we propose Graph Retention Networks (GRNs) as a unified architecture for deep learning on dynamic graphs. The GRN extends the concept of retention into dynamic graph data as graph retention, equipping the model with three key computational paradigms: parallelizable training, low-cost $\mathcal{O}(1)$ inference, and long-term chunkwise training. This architecture achieves an optimal balance between efficiency, effectiveness, and scalability. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets demonstrate its strong performance in both edge-level prediction and node-level classification tasks with significantly reduced training latency, lower GPU memory overhead, and improved inference throughput by up to 86.7x compared to SOTA baselines. The proposed GRN architecture achieves competitive performance across diverse dynamic graph benchmarks, demonstrating its adaptability to a wide range of tasks.

LAGOS-AND: A Large Gold Standard Dataset for Scholarly Author Name Disambiguation

In this paper, we present a method to automatically build large labeled datasets for the author ambiguity problem in the academic world by leveraging the authoritative academic resources, ORCID and DOI. Using the method, we built LAGOS-AND, two large, gold-standard datasets for author name disambiguation (AND), of which LAGOS-AND-BLOCK is created for clustering-based AND research and LAGOS-AND-PAIRWISE is created for classification-based AND research. Our LAGOS-AND datasets are substantially different from the existing ones. The initial versions of the datasets (v1.0, released in February 2021) include 7.5M citations authored by 798K unique authors (LAGOS-AND-BLOCK) and close to 1M instances (LAGOS-AND-PAIRWISE). And both datasets show close similarities to the whole Microsoft Academic Graph (MAG) across validations of six facets. In building the datasets, we reveal the variation degrees of last names in three literature databases, PubMed, MAG, and Semantic Scholar, by comparing author names hosted to the authors' official last names shown on the ORCID pages. Furthermore, we evaluate several baseline disambiguation methods as well as the MAG's author IDs system on our datasets, and the evaluation helps identify several interesting findings. We hope the datasets and findings will bring new insights for future studies. The code and datasets are publicly available.
