Integrating dynamics into graph neural networks (GNNs) provides deeper insights into the evolution of dynamic graphs, thereby enhancing the temporal representation in real-world dynamic network problems. Existing methods extracting critical information from dynamic graphs face two key challenges, either overlooking the negative impact of redundant information or struggling in addressing the distribution shifting issue in dynamic graphs. To address these challenges, we propose MaskDGNN, a novel dynamic GNN architecture that consists of two modules: First, self-supervised activeness-aware temporal masking mechanism selectively retains edges between highly active nodes while masking those with low activeness, effectively reducing redundancy. Second, adaptive frequency enhancing graph representation learner amplifies the frequency-domain features of nodes to capture intrinsic features under distribution shifting. Experiments on five real-world dynamic graph datasets demonstrate that MaskDGNN outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving an average improvement of 7.07% in accuracy and 13.87% in MRR for link prediction tasks.
