Bayesian Matrix-Valued Graphs for Context-Dependent Multivariate Relationships

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 7, 2026 · UTC

Many scientific graphs attach several variables to each node, so a single scalar edge weight cannot describe direction-dependent interactions. We model each edge by a symmetric positive-definite (SPD) matrix and infer a posterior over matrix-valued graph geometries, which we call the Bayesian matrix-valued graph (BMVG). We ask how these interactions reconfigure across contexts: how large the change is and which multivariate directions strengthen or weaken. The geodesic distance induced by the affine-invariant Riemannian metric (AIRM) quantifies deformation magnitude and generalized eigenvalues
