Spectral and message-passing GNNs are often studied by different communities, with little interaction. In arxiv.org/abs/2602.10031, we argue that the two architecture types have distinct strengths and should be studied in a unified way.

Want to know about the current understanding of the generalization abilities of GNNs? Please have a look at our survey paper arxiv.org/abs/2503.15650. Joint work with Antonis Vasileiou, Stefanie Jegelka, and @levie_ron.

Check out our #NeurIPS2024 paper: Equivariant Machine Learning on Graphs with Nonlinear Spectral Filters arxiv.org/abs/2406.01249 With Ronen Talmon and @levie_ron, we consider graph functional shifts as a symmetry group and propose NLSFs that are equivariant to these shifts

Check out my #NeurIPS paper “A Graphon-Signal Analysis of GNNs.” I introduce a metric on the space of graphs with node features, which reveals that the input space of GNNs has Euclidean-like properties. This allows us to derive nice analysis like generalization theorems.

GNNs typically exploit permutation symmetry. Yet for learning tasks on a fixed graph, we show that enforcing active/approximate symmetries improves generalization. Check out our work "Approximately Equivariant Graph Networks" #NeurIPS23 (joint work w/ @levie_ron @SoledadVillar5 )

1-WL enhanced our understanding of the ultimate limitations of GNNs. However, it doesn't reveal similarities between graphs in the feature space. Check out our new NeurIPS paper, where we develop a continuous variant to better understand the topology of GNNs' feature space.

3/3 accepted papers at #NeurIPS2023 ! In the papers, with @chrsmrrs, @SoledadVillar5, @TeresaNHuang and Jan Böker, we analyze GNNs by considering meaningful notions of graph metrics using graphon theory, which give structure to the domain of definition of GNNs. By that: 1/3

We prove new generalization and universal approximation theorems, alignment of GNNs with graph metrics inspired by 1WL, and novel GNN architectures which are equivariant to approximate symmetries. 2/3

Generalization bounds in #DeepLearning are typically: capacity / dataset size For message passing NNs, @SohirMaskey, Y. Lee, @GittaKutyniok and I proved the bound: capacity / (dataset size * size of graphs) facilitating generalization on large graphs. arxiv.org/abs/2202.00645

* Here, we deal with inductive learning on a dataset of graphs. The term (dataset size) is the number of graphs in the training set. * The (size of graphs) term is the average number of nodes in graphs in the dataset, to some positive power.

* (capacity) is some complexity measure of the hypothesis class of message passing networks

I am thrilled to announce that I will be starting a tenure-track faculty position at the Faculty of Mathematics, @TechnionLive. Thank you to everyone who supported me and to all of my amazing collaborators!
