Differentiable Koopman Operator for Contrastive Learning on Dynamic Graphs

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.02990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real-world interaction networks are inherently dynamic: edges form and dissolve as node behavior shifts over time. Most snapshot-based contrastive methods encode temporal dependencies implicitly in encoder weights, without an explicit model of how node representations evolve, making them brittle under distribution shifts. We propose KAIROS (Koopman-Aligned Invariant Representations for Open Dynamic Systems), a self-supervised framework that embeds a differentiable Koopman operator within a dynamic graph contrastive learning loop to linearize temporal evolution in the learned embedding space. A dual-view encoder pairs raw node features with a graph-diffused structural view and is optimized with multi-granularity contrastive objectives across t
