Diffusion enabled Optimal Transport distances for graph matching
arXiv:2607.06646v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper introduces Diffusion Semi-Relaxed Fused Gromov-Wasserstein (DsrFGW), a novel method for graph comparison that unifies node features and structural connectivity through optimal transport. While traditional Gromov-Wasserstein and semi-relaxed variants (srGW, srFGW) capture graph structure, they often struggle with sparse, noisy, or partially observed graphs. Inspired by Graph Diffusion Distance, which posits graphs are similar if they enab...
