The proposed UNPrompt approach is a novel zero-shot generalist graph anomaly detection method that trains a single model on a single graph dataset and then effectively detects anomalies in other graph datasets without retraining or fine-tuning. This is achieved through two main modules: one module aligns node attributes across different graphs via coordinate-wise normalization, while another module learns generalized neighborhood prompts to support latent node attribute predictability as an anomaly score. UNPrompt significantly outperforms competing methods under both the generalist and one-model-for-one-dataset settings.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
UNPrompt is a new way to find unusual patterns in graphs. Usually, we need to train a separate model for each graph dataset, but this can be hard or even impossible in real-world scenarios. UNPrompt trains just one model on a single graph dataset and then uses it to detect anomalies in other datasets without needing any more training. This is possible because the approach learns generalized patterns in graphs that work across different datasets.
