arXiv:2509.18171v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated graph learning (FGL) is a natural paradigm for social-media user graphs, where language communities, regional markets, and service boundaries can prevent raw graph pooling. We use the Twitch Gamers networks as the primary live-streaming social-media benchmark, and study a question that is often hidden by representation-level evaluation: after local message passing, what update signals are actually exposed to server aggregation? Through update-space measurements, we identify an aggregation-level failure in which graph-domain clients
This paper addresses critical challenges in federated graph learning, a rapidly developing area for AI, by identifying aggregation-level failures in real-world social-media networks.
Effective federated learning is crucial for developing robust AI models while maintaining data privacy across distributed clients, directly impacting the scalability and ethical implementation of AI systems.
The proposed 'FedIA' framework offers an importance-aware aggregation method, potentially improving the domain-robustness and performance of federated graph learning for diverse applications.
