Feedback Control for Multi-Objective Graph Self-Supervision

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2602.05036v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Can multi-task self-supervised learning on graphs be coordinated without the usual tug-of-war between objectives? Graph self-supervised learning (SSL) offers a growing toolbox of pretext objectives like mutual information, reconstruction, and contrastive learning, yet combining them reliably remains challenging due to objective interference and training instability. Most multi-pretext pipelines use per-update mixing, forcing every parameter update to be a compromise and leading to three failure modes: Disagreement (conflict-induced negative transfer), Drift (nonstationary objective utility), and Drought (hidden starvation of underserved objectives). We argue that coordination is fundamentally a temporal allocation problem: deciding when e
