#1 FDGen: A Fairness-Aware Graph Generation Model [PDF2] [Copy] [Kimi] [REL]

Authors: Zichong Wang, Wenbin Zhang

Graph generation models have shown significant potential across various domains. However, despite their success, these models often inherit societal biases, limiting their adoption in real-world applications. Existing research on fairness in graph generation primarily addresses structural bias, overlooking the critical issue of feature bias. To address this gap, we propose FDGen, a novel approach that defines and mitigates both feature and structural biases in graph generation models. Furthermore, we provide a theoretical analysis of how bias sources in graph data contribute to disparities in graph generation tasks. Experimental results on four real-world datasets demonstrate that FDGen outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving notable improvements in fairness while maintaining competitive generation performance.
