CoRe-GNN: Multilevel Message passing on Coarsened graphs2608.02128AuthorsAntonin Joly,Nicolas Keriven,Aline RoumyAbstractTraining Graph Neural Networks on large graphs is challenged by the memory cost of storing all node representations across layers. We show that several existing scalable approaches can be written as structured modifications of the GNN propagation matrix, providing a unified perspective that exposes their respective limitations. In particular, graph coarsening replaces it by a low-rank approximation that enables spectral guarantees but assigns uniform representations to clustered nodes, while Cluster-GCN restricts the propagation matrix to intra-cluster connections that allow efficient batching but sever long-range information. These are complementary failures of the same decomposition of the graph into groups of nodes. To obtain the best of both worlds, we propose CoRe-GNN, which performs both propagations in parallel at each layer: a coarsened inter-cluster term capturing long-range structure, and a local intra-cluster term preserving per-node discriminability. We prove that CoRe-GNN inherits analogous approximation guarantees to those of graph coarsening, and introduce a natural cluster-based batching scheme that scales to graphs with millions of nodes. On node classification benchmarks spanning homophilic, heterophilic, large-scale, and long-range graphs, CoRe-GNN outperforms both graph coarsening and Cluster-GCN baselines. Notably, CoRe-GNN reaches competitive accuracy on long-range tasks, while remaining memory-efficient through batching.ResourcesView on Hugging FaceRead PDFArXiv

ResearchLearning When to Trust via Selective Context Preference Optimization
Language models increasingly condition their answers on external signals, and a single misleading one can turn a correct answer wrong. The obvious remedy, training models to resist such signals, hides a failure mode: a model that ignores all context looks robust yet is useless when the context is worth trusting. We recast the problem as selective trust and introduce MIST, a human-annotated benchmark that renders each reasoning item under four matched conditions (clean, misleading, correct-context, and irrelevant-context), together with SC2W, a paired metric counting how often a misle

ResearchTracing the Heart: An Evidence-Linked Pipeline for Heart-Failure Feature Engineering
Electronic health record (EHR) feature engineering is a major bottleneck in clinical research and AI, accounting for 39-45% of data scientists' workload. This is especially pronounced in heart failure, which affects an estimated 6.7 million U.S. adults and requires integrating fragmented EHR data with disease-specific, guideline-based clinical reasoning. Existing rule-based and large language model (LLM)-based approaches offer only partial automation with limited maintainability and evidence traceability. We developed the Nimblemind Multi-Agent System (nMAS), an evidence-linked, rubr
