DGL is a Python package that interfaces between existing tensor libraries and data being expressed as graphs.

It makes implementing graph neural networks (including Graph Convolution Networks, TreeLSTM, and many others) easy while maintaining high computation efficiency.

A summary of the model accuracy and training speed with the Pytorch backend (on Amazon EC2 p3.2x instance (w/ V100 GPU)), as compared with the best open-source implementations:

With the MXNet/Gluon backend , we scaled a graph of 50M nodes and 150M edges on a P3.8xlarge instance, with 160s per epoch, on SSE (Stochastic Steady-state Embedding), a model similar to GCN.

We are currently in Beta stage. More features and improvements are coming.

System requirements

DGL should work on

  • all Linux distributions no earlier than Ubuntu 16.04
  • macOS X
  • Windows 10

DGL also requires Python 3.5 or later. Python 2 support is coming.

Right now, DGL works on PyTorch 0.4.1+ and MXNet nightly build.

Installation

Using anaconda

conda install -c dglteam dgl

Using pip

pip install dgl

From source

Refer to the guide here.

How DGL looks like

A graph can be constructed with feature tensors like this:

import dgl
import torch as th

g = dgl.DGLGraph()
g.add_nodes(5)                          # add 5 nodes
g.add_edges([0, 0, 0, 0], [1, 2, 3, 4]) # add 4 edges 0->1, 0->2, 0->3, 0->4
g.ndata['h'] = th.randn(5, 3)           # assign one 3D vector to each node
g.edata['h'] = th.randn(4, 4)           # assign one 4D vector to each edge

This is everything to implement a single layer for Graph Convolutional Network on PyTorch:

import dgl.function as fn
import torch.nn as nn
import torch.nn.functional as F
from dgl import DGLGraph

msg_func = fn.copy_src(src='h', out='m')
reduce_func = fn.sum(msg='m', out='h')

class GCNLayer(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, in_feats, out_feats):
        super(GCNLayer, self).__init__()
        self.linear = nn.Linear(in_feats, out_feats)

    def apply(self, nodes):
        return {'h': F.relu(self.linear(nodes.data['h']))}

    def forward(self, g, feature):
        g.ndata['h'] = feature
        g.update_all(msg_func, reduce_func)
        g.apply_nodes(func=self.apply)
        return g.ndata.pop('h')

One can also customize how message and reduce function works. The following code demonstrates a (simplified version of) Graph Attention Network (GAT) layer:

def msg_func(edges):
    return {'k': edges.src['k'], 'v': edges.src['v']}

def reduce_func(nodes):
    # nodes.data['q'] has the shape
    #     (number_of_nodes, feature_dims)
    # nodes.data['k'] and nodes.data['v'] have the shape
    #     (number_of_nodes, number_of_incoming_messages, feature_dims)
    # You only need to deal with the case where all nodes have the same number
    # of incoming messages.
    q = nodes.data['q'][:, None]
    k = nodes.mailbox['k']
    v = nodes.mailbox['v']
    s = F.softmax((q * k).sum(-1), 1)[:, :, None]
    return {'v': th.sum(s * v, 1)}

class GATLayer(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, in_feats, out_feats):
        super(GATLayer, self).__init__()
        self.Q = nn.Linear(in_feats, out_feats)
        self.K = nn.Linear(in_feats, out_feats)
        self.V = nn.Linear(in_feats, out_feats)

    def apply(self, nodes):
        return {'v': F.relu(self.linear(nodes.data['v']))}

    def forward(self, g, feature):
        g.ndata['v'] = self.V(feature)
        g.ndata['q'] = self.Q(feature)
        g.ndata['k'] = self.K(feature)
        g.update_all(msg_func, reduce_func)
        g.apply_nodes(func=self.apply)
        return g.ndata['v']
