用轻量模块动态调节图神经网络,实现无重放的持续学习。

TAAM:Inductive Graph-Class Incremental Learning with Task-Aware Adaptive Modulation

  • 为每个新任务训练专用轻量调制模块,动态调整骨干网络计算流。
  • 在8个数据集上超越当前最优方法,平均性能提升5.2%以上。
  • 适合真实场景中任务身份未知的持续图学习,无需存储历史数据。

图持续学习(GCL)旨在应对流式图数据带来的挑战。然而,现有方法多依赖重放策略,面临内存限制与隐私问题,且难以解决稳定性-可塑性困境。本文提出任务感知自适应调制(TAAM),核心是轻量级神经突触调制器(NSMs)。针对每个新任务,训练并冻结一个专属NSM作为“专家模块”,对共享的GNN骨干网络进行节点感知的自适应调制。该设计将新知识保留在紧凑的任务特定模块中,自然避免灾难性遗忘,无需任何数据重放。此外,为应对真实场景中任务ID未知的问题,提出并理论证明了锚定多跳传播(AMP)方法。值得注意的是,我们发现现有GCL基准存在缺陷,可能导致数据泄露和评估偏差,因此所有实验均在更严格的归纳学习场景下进行。大量实验表明,TAAM在8个数据集上全面优于当前最优方法。代码与数据集见:https://github.com/1iuJT/TAAM_AAMAS2026。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Graph Continual Learning (GCL) aims to solve the challenges of streaming graph data. However, current methods often depend on replay-based strategies, which raise concerns like memory limits and privacy issues, while also struggling to resolve the stability-plasticity dilemma. In this paper, we suggest that lightweight, task-specific modules can effectively guide the reasoning process of a fixed GNN backbone. Based on this idea, we propose Task-Aware Adaptive Modulation (TAAM). The key component of TAAM is its lightweight Neural Synapse Modulators (NSMs). For each new task, a dedicated NSM is trained and then frozen, acting as an "expert module." These modules perform detailed, node-attentive adaptive modulation on the computational flow of a shared GNN backbone. This setup ensures that new knowledge is kept within compact, task-specific modules, naturally preventing catastrophic forgetting without using any data replay. Additionally, to address the important challenge of unknown task IDs in real-world scenarios, we propose and theoretically prove a novel method named Anchored Multi-hop Propagation (AMP). Notably, we find that existing GCL benchmarks have flaws that can cause data leakage and biased evaluations. Therefore, we conduct all experiments in a more rigorous inductive learning scenario. Extensive experiments show that TAAM comprehensively outperforms state-of-the-art methods across eight datasets. Code and Datasets are available at: https://github.com/1iuJT/TAAM_AAMAS2026.
