| contents | Data imputation is a crucial task due to the widespread occurrence of missing data. Many methods adopt a two-step approach: initially crafting a preliminary imputation (the "draft") and then refining it to produce the final missing data imputation result, commonly referred to as "draft-then-refine". In our study, we examine this prevalent strategy through the lens of graph Dirichlet energy. We observe that a basic "draft" imputation tends to decrease the Dirichlet energy. Therefore, a subsequent "refine" step is necessary to restore the overall energy balance. Existing refinement techniques, such as the Graph Convolutional Network (GCN), often result in further energy reduction. To address this, we introduce a new framework, the Graph Laplacian Pyramid Network (GLPN). GLPN incorporates a U-shaped autoencoder and residual networks to capture both global and local details effectively. Through extensive experiments on multiple real-world datasets, GLPN consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods across three different missing data mechanisms. The code is available at https://github.com/liguanlue/GLPN. |
