View Space: Learning Representation across Arbitrary Graphs

Generalizing pretrained models to unseen datasets without retraining is a central challenge toward foundation models. Achieving fully inductive inference on numerical data is particularly difficult due to large variations in feature dimensionality and semantics across datasets. We observe that, in the presence of graph structure, numerical data admits a distinct structure-induced representational axis beyond the feature space, which we formalize as the view space. This view space enables a unified representation of graphs with heterogeneous features and motivates Graph View Transformation (GVT), a class of parametric mappings that can be shared across arbitrary graphs. We instantiate this framework with Recurrent GVT, an architecture for fully inductive node representation learning in node classification. Pretrained on OGBN-Arxiv and evaluated on 27 benchmarks, Recurrent GVT outperforms GraphAny, the prior fully inductive graph model, by +8.93%, and surpasses 12 individually tuned GNNs by at least +3.30%. These results establish the view space as a principled and practical foundation for learning across graphs with heterogeneous feature spaces. Code and checkpoints are available in https://github.com/dooho00/graph-view-space.

Aggregation Buffer: Revisiting DropEdge with a New Parameter Block

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 connections in the graph, we observe that its potential performance gain in supervised learning tasks is significantly limited. To understand why, we provide a theoretical analysis showing that the limited performance of DropEdge comes from the fundamental limitation that exists in many GNN architectures. Based on this analysis, we propose Aggregation Buffer, a parameter block specifically designed to improve the robustness of GNNs by addressing the limitation of DropEdge. Our method is compatible with any GNN model, and shows consistent performance improvements on multiple datasets. Moreover, our method effectively addresses well-known problems such as degree bias or structural disparity as a unifying solution. Code and datasets are available at https://github.com/dooho00/agg-buffer.
