Message-passing neural networks (MPNNs) are the leading architecture for deep learning on graph-structured data, in large part due to their simplicity and scalability. Unfortunately, it was shown that these architectures are limited in…

Graph neural networks operate on graph-structured data via exchanging messages along edges. One limitation of this message passing paradigm is the over-squashing problem. Over-squashing occurs when messages from a node's expanded receptive…
