The proposed Continuous-Time Representation Learning (CTRL) model tackles the challenges of scalable deep learning on time-varying heterogeneous information networks (HINs). Specifically, it handles new nodes or edges and captures the evolution of high-order topological structures. The CTRL model integrates three components: heterogeneous attention, edge-based Hawkes process, and dynamic centrality. It is trained for future event prediction, outperforming state-of-the-art approaches on three benchmark datasets. Ablation studies demonstrate the effectiveness of the model design.

The paper proposes a new way to learn representations on temporal graphs, which are important for many real-world applications like citation networks. The old methods can’t handle new nodes or edges, and they don’t understand how the graph changes over time. The new model, called CTRL, is better because it considers both node features and temporal structures. It’s trained to predict future events on a graph, which helps it learn about the changing relationships between nodes. The results show that this approach works well and beats other methods.
