• Abstract: This paper focuses on representation learning for dynamic graphs with temporal interactions. A fundamental issue is that both the graph structure and the nodes own their own dynamics, and their blending induces intractable complexity in the temporal evolution over graphs. Drawing inspiration from the recent process of physical dynamic models in deep neural networks, we propose Graph Neural Controlled Differential Equation (GN-CDE) model, a generic differential model for dynamic graphs that characterise the continuously dynamic evolution of node embedding trajectories with a neural network parameterised vector field and the derivatives of interactions w.r.t. time. Our framework exhibits several desirable characteristics, including the ability to express dynamics on evolving graphs without integration by segments, the capability to calibrate trajectories with subsequent data, and robustness to missing observations. Empirical evaluation on a range of dynamic graph representation learning tasks demonstrates the superiority of our proposed approach compared to the baselines.
