TIDFormer: Exploiting Temporal and Interactive Dynamics Makes A Great Dynamic Graph Transformer

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2506.00431v2 Announce Type: replace Due to the proficiency of self-attention mechanisms (SAMs) in capturing dependencies in sequence modeling, several existing dynamic graph neural networks (DGNNs) utilize Transformer architectures with various encoding designs to capture sequential evolutions of dynamic graphs. However, the effectiveness and efficiency of these Transformer-based DGNNs vary significantly, highlighting the importance of properly defining the SAM on dynamic graphs and comprehensively encoding temporal and interactive dynamics without extra complex modules.
