In Figure 1 we demonstrate the common neighbor (CN) distribution among positive and negative test samples for ogbl-collab, ogbl-ppa, and ogbl-citation2. These results demonstrate that a vast majority of negative samples have no CNs. Since CNs is a typically good heuristic, this makes it easy to identify most negative samples. We further present the CN distribution of Cora, Citeseer, Pubmed, and ogbl-ddi in Figure 3. The CN distribution of Cora, Citeseer, and Pubmed are consistent with our previous observations on the OGB datasets in Figure 1. We note that ogbl-ddi exhibits a different distribution with other datasets. As compared to the other datasets, most of the negative samples in ogbl-ddi have common neighbors. This is likely because ogbl-ddi is considerably denser than the other graphs.

The results are shown in Figure 6.

We thank all the reviewers for their constructive feedback. Reviewer #1: (1) Number of labeled nodes to train the policy network. ANRMAB, at least a moderate number of labeled data are required. We observe similar trends to the results in Section 4.4 (Paper). We have compared classification performance w.r.t.

(Figure 1). We further introduce a novel training scheme of iterative training with data mining ( 2.2). 2.1 CORA Inference

Link prediction attempts to predict whether an unseen edge exists based on only a portion of edges of a graph. A flurry of methods have been introduced in recent years that attempt to make use of graph neural networks (GNNs) for this task. Furthermore, new and diverse datasets have also been created to better evaluate the effectiveness of these new models. However, multiple pitfalls currently exist that hinder our ability to properly evaluate these new methods. These pitfalls mainly include: (1) Lower than actual performance on multiple baselines, (2) A lack of a unified data split and evaluation metric on some datasets, and (3) An unrealistic evaluation setting that uses easy negative samples. To overcome these challenges, we first conduct a fair comparison across prominent methods and datasets, utilizing the same dataset and hyperparameter search settings. We then create a more practical evaluation setting based on a Heuristic R elated Sampling Technique (HeaRT), which samples hard negative samples via multiple heuristics. The new evaluation setting helps promote new challenges and opportunities in link prediction by aligning the evaluation with real-world situations.

Chatbots can pass the Turing test--but they can't yet handle an office worker's inbox. One morning last month, I decided to try artificial intelligence on a dire problem: my inbox. In the past twenty years, the e-mail address I use for writing projects has been discovered by a staggering number of P.R. firms, scammers, and strangers with eccentric requests. On this particular day, I had eight hundred and twenty-nine messages. Of the fifty most recent e-mails, the majority were dreck, but about eight were of actual interest, suggesting a hit rate of sixteen per cent--just enough that I had to worry about missing something important.

Neural ordinary differential equations (neural ODE) are powerful continuous-time machine learning models for depicting the behavior of complex dynamical systems, but their verification remains challenging due to limited reachability analysis tools adapted to them. We propose a novel interval-based reachability method that leverages continuous-time mixed monotonicity techniques for dynamical systems to compute an over-approximation for the neural ODE reachable sets. By exploiting the geometric structure of full initial sets and their boundaries via the homeomorphism property, our approach ensures efficient bound propagation. By embedding neural ODE dynamics into a mixed monotone system, our interval-based reachability approach, implemented in TIRA with single-step, incremental, and boundary-based approaches, provides sound and computationally efficient over-approximations compared with CORA's zonotopes and NNV2.0 star set representations, while trading tightness for efficiency. This trade-off makes our method particularly suited for high-dimensional, real-time, and safety-critical applications. Applying mixed monotonicity to neural ODE reachability analysis paves the way for lightweight formal analysis by leveraging the symmetric structure of monotone embeddings and the geometric simplicity of interval boxes, opening new avenues for scalable verification aligned with the symmetry and geometry of neural representations. This novel approach is illustrated on two numerical examples of a spiral system and a fixed-point attractor system modeled as a neural ODE.

Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) have shown significant impact through their model capacity, scalability, and zero-shot generalization. However, due to the heterogeneity of inter-variate dependencies and the backbone scalability on large-scale multivariate datasets, most TSFMs are typically pre-trained on univariate time series. This limitation renders them oblivious to crucial information from diverse covariates in real-world forecasting tasks. To further enhance the performance of TSFMs, we propose a general covariate-aware adaptation (CoRA) framework for TSFMs. It leverages pre-trained backbones of foundation models while effectively incorporating exogenous covariates from various modalities, including time series, language, and images, to improve the quality of predictions. Technically, CoRA maintains the equivalence of initialization and parameter consistency during adaptation. With preserved backbones of foundation models as frozen feature extractors, the outcome embeddings from foundation models are empirically demonstrated more informative than raw data. Further, CoRA employs a novel Granger Causality Embedding (GCE) to automatically evaluate covariates regarding their causal predictability with respect to the target variate. We incorporate these weighted embeddings with a zero-initialized condition-injection mechanism, avoiding catastrophic forgetting of pre-trained foundation models and gradually integrates exogenous information. Extensive experiments show that CoRA of TSFMs surpasses state-of-the-art covariate-aware deep forecasters with full or few-shot training samples, achieving 31.1% MSE reduction on covariate-aware forecasting. Compared to other adaptation methods, CoRA exhibits strong compatibility with various advanced TSFMs and extends the scope of covariates to other modalities, presenting a practical paradigm for the application of TSFMs.
