A Comparative Study of Graph Representations for GNN-Based Power Grid Control in L2RPN

Abstract

Graph construction is a critical but underexamined design choice in deep reinforcement learning for power grid control. We present a controlled experimental comparison of different graph representations, including physical topology, electrical-sensitivity, and hybrid variants for topology control in the Learning to Run a Power Network (L2RPN) environment. Our findings indicate that matching graph complexity to task granularity is more important than maximizing representational richness, and highlight the importance of controlled representation studies at scale.

Topological Fraud Detection in Latent Transaction Spaces

Working entirely on topologically anonymized embeddings, we perform fraud detection using iterative rounds of unsupervised filtering followed by supervised sniping. The result is an ultra-low latency privacy--preserving triage that allows institutions to flag suspicious activity without compromising Personally Identifiable Information.

Deep belief networks are exact

We prove that every strictly positive probability distribution on \(\{-1,1\}^n\) is represented exactly by a sigmoid belief network with finite parameters. This answers a question of Sutskever and Hinton. The proof upgrades their probability-sharing approximation to exact representation using Brouwer's fixed-point theorem.

Kolmogorov--Arnold stability for discontinuous functions

Here we investigate the stability of the Kolmogorov--Arnold representation theorem (KART) under adversarial reparameterisations of the hidden layer for multivariate discontinuous and unbounded functions. Our results provide a rigorous mathematical foundation for the structural robustness of modern deep learning architectures, such as Kolmogorov--Arnold Networks (KANs), under adversarial configurations.
