The paper "Graph Condensation: A Survey" by Xinyi Gao et al. provides an extensive overview of graph condensation (GC) techniques, which aim to reduce the size of large graphs while preserving their essential characteristics for efficient training of graph neural networks (GNNs). The authors categorize existing GC methods into five categories based on critical evaluation criteria: effectiveness, generalization, efficiency, fairness, and robustness. They discuss various optimization strategies and condensed graph generation methods, and empirically compare different GC approaches using these criteria. The paper also explores practical applications, open-source resources, and challenges in the field, highlighting the need for further research to advance GC techniques. The contributions of the survey include a systematic taxonomy of GC methods, a comprehensive review of recent advancements, and detailed discussions on optimization strategies and condensed graph generation. The paper aims to provide a clear understanding of the motivations and objectives driving GC research and to guide future developments in the field.The paper "Graph Condensation: A Survey" by Xinyi Gao et al. provides an extensive overview of graph condensation (GC) techniques, which aim to reduce the size of large graphs while preserving their essential characteristics for efficient training of graph neural networks (GNNs).
