新基准评估图模型在主题与格式双维度的迁移能力。

Graph foundation models (GFM) aim to acquire transferable knowledge by pre-training on diverse graphs, which can be adapted to various downstream tasks. However, domain shift in graphs is inherently two-dimensional: graphs differ not only in what they describe (topic domains) but also in how they are represented (format domains). Most existing GFM benchmarks vary only topic domains, thereby obscuring how knowledge transfers across both dimensions. We present a new benchmark that jointly evaluates topic and format gaps across the full GFM pipeline, including multi-domain self-supervised pre-training and few-shot downstream adaptation, and provides a timely evaluation of recent GFMs in the rapidly evolving landscape. Our protocol enables controlled assessment in four settings: (i) pre-training on diverse topics and formats, while adapting to unseen downstream datasets; (ii) same pre-training as in (i), while adapting to seen datasets; (iii) pre-training on a single topic domain, while adapting to other topics; (iv) pre-training on a base format, while adapting to other formats. This two-axis evaluation disentangles semantic generalization from robustness to representational shifts. We conduct extensive evaluations of eight state-of-the-art GFMs on 33 datasets spanning seven topic domains and six format domains, surfacing new empirical observations and practical insights for future research.
