Abstract

Dynamic community detection has become a critical task in graph representation learning due to the dynamic evolution of graph data in social networks and e-commerce platforms. Existing methods often model graph evolution using a unified time decay mechanism, struggling to characterize heterogeneous temporal behaviors. Moreover, they insufficiently model channel-wise feature interactions, thus limiting the balance between expressiveness and computational efficiency. To address these issues, a novel dynamic graph learning framework, the Temporal-Channel Graph Attention Network (TC-GAT) , was developed. The TC-GAT framework integrated a dynamic adjacency fusion (DAF) module into a graph attention network (GAT) backbone. The DAF module achieves multi-stage adjacency information fusion through node-adaptive temporal weighting, which effectively characterizes diverse evolutionary behaviors. Furthermore, a graph channel mixer (GCM) was introduced to model deep interactions between channels in a lightweight manner, substantially enhancing node representation capabilities. Experimental results on multiple real-world dynamic graph datasets show that TC-GAT significantly outperforms mainstream models in key metrics such as accuracy, F1 score, and AUC, while also demonstrating high training efficiency. These findings confirm that collaboratively modeling spatiotemporal evolution and channel interactions improves the overall performance of dynamic graph analysis.
