UniSAGE: Unifying Static and Dynamic Attributes with Hyper-Structure

Abstract

With the rapid growth of digital data, real-world applications increasingly involve hierarchical information that combines static attributes with dynamic records. Modeling such heterogeneous data in a unified and generalizable manner remains challenging. Existing approaches often rely on extensive manual design, are tightly coupled to specific data schemas, and typically process static and dynamic attributes in isolation, thereby overlooking their implicit interactions. We propose UniSAGE, a unified framework for modeling data with both static and dynamic attributes. UniSAGE constructs a global attribute graph that represents hierarchical and temporal relationships in a unified structure. To ensure representational consistency, it introduces two orthogonal parameter subspaces that jointly support static aggregation and dynamic reasoning within a shared semantic space. Building on these unified representations, UniSAGE further enables task-specific interaction between static and dynamic attributes via a lightweight hyper-structure mechanism. UniSAGE is fully automated, robust to evolving data schemas, and capable of capturing complex cross-attribute dependencies. Extensive experiments on multiple public benchmarks and a real-world financial behavior dataset demonstrate that UniSAGE consistently outperforms existing methods, achieving performance improvements of over 10% on several tasks.
