Participated (online) in the panel discussion with Bryan Perozzi, Michael Bronstein, and Christopher Morris on graph foundation models held during the Graph Learning Tutorial at ICML 2024, thanks Ameya and Adrian for inviting!
In our new Medium blogpost with Michael Bronstein, Jianan Zhao, Haitao Mao, and Zhaocheng Zhu we discuss foundation models in Graph & Geometric DL: from the core theoretical and data challenges to the most recent models that you can try already today!
A productive week in Singapore! First, gave a keynote at the workshop on Graph Foundation Models at The WebConf 2024 and participated in the panel discussion. Then, visited the group of professor Xavier Bresson at the National University of Singapore with the talk on graph foundation models - from KG reasoning to AI 4 Science. Thank you Professor Bresson for extending the invitation! Slides
Our position paper Graph Foundation Models are Already Here was accepted at ICML 2024 as a spotlight paper!
It was a delightful experience to participate in the week-long workshop on GNNs and neuro-symbolic AI (FANeSy) organized by Pablo Barcelo, CENIA, and Unversidad San Sebastian. Thanks Pablo for the invitation!
Our paper on ULTRA, the first foundation model for KG reasoning, was accepted at ICLR 2024. See you in Vienna!
Together with Michael Bronstein, we wrote a huge blog post on the state of affairs in Graph and Geometric DL in 2023 with some predictions for 2024. Part I focuses on theory and GNN architectures (including graph transformers), Part II talks about cool and exciting applications in structured biology, materials science, ML potentials, algorithmic reasoning, and temporal graph learning. We interviewed many prominent researchers to provide several points of view on each subject - so this work wouldn’t be possible without the massive community engagement!
A few talks on graph foundation models given recently: at UC San Diego and at the Dagstuhl seminar on Scalable Graph Mining and Learning.
Happy to release ULTRA - the first foundation model for knowledge graph reasoning. A single pre-trained ULTRA model is able to do zero-shot link prediction on any unseen KG and do so better than many supervisedly trained baselines on 50+ datasets! More details in the Medium blog post. We release the paper, several checkpoints (177k params), code, and data on GitHub and HuggingFace Spaces.
Our team got two papers accepted at the upcoming NeurIPS’23 in New Orleans!
I was lucky to attend ICML’23 in Honolulu in person and see many friends and Graph ML folks. Check my report on latest and greatest graph learning research in the new blog post together with some stunning photos from Hawaii!
A new paper Neural graph reasoning: Complex logical query answering meets graph databases and an accompanying Medium post where we introduce the concept of Neural Graph Databases (NGDB) and a whole new categorization of complex logical query answering tasks. NGDBs answer complex queries right in the latent space and are able to reason over missing links (“what’s missing?”) in addition to standard DB-like retrieval (“what’s there”?).
A new Medium post by Andy Huang, Emanuele Rossi, Michael Galkin, and Kellin Pelrine on the recent progress in temporal Graph ML!

Regular review of KG-related papers from ACL 2021, the major NLP research venue in the area. This time: neural databases, retrieval, KG embeddings, entity linking, QA, and a bunch of new datasets.
A new blogpost on our recent research idea: if nodes in a graph are “words”, can we design a fixed-size vocab of “sub-word” units and go beyond shallow embedding? We propose NodePiece, a compositional tokenization approach for dramatic KG vocabulary size reduction, and find that in some tasks, you don’t even need trainable node embeddings! Furthermore, NodePiece is inductive by design and can encode unseen nodes using the same backbone vocabulary.
I compiled a short overview of cool KG-related papers on Neural Reasoning, Temporal Reasoning, Relational Learning, and a bit of Complex QA! Brew some Hot beverage and have a nice weekend reading.

Hello, ACL 2019 has just finished and I attended the whole week of the conference talks, tutorials, and workshops in beautiful Florence! In this post I would like to recap how knowledge graphs slowly but firmly integrate into the NLP community 
On July, 6th in Berlin I attended spaCy IRL - a conference organized by explosion.ai and spacy which you probably know as one of the most popular, powerful and fast NLP libraries. Here is a short overview of the event. 
Recently returned back from the 2nd Conversational Intelligence Summer School organized by the Text Machine Lab of UMass Lowell and iPavlov lab from MIPT, Moscow. The School took place in Lowell, MA, USA, one of the first US industrial cities with remaining spirit of the industrial revolution.
