Conv Layers

Torch modules for graph convolutions.

GraphConv

class dgl.nn.pytorch.conv.GraphConv(in_feats, out_feats, norm=True, bias=True, activation=None)

Bases: torch.nn.modules.module.Module

Apply graph convolution over an input signal.

Graph convolution is introduced in GCN and can be described as below:

\[h_i^{(l+1)} = \sigma(b^{(l)} + \sum_{j\in\mathcal{N}(i)}\frac{1}{c_{ij}}h_j^{(l)}W^{(l)})\]

where \(\mathcal{N}(i)\) is the neighbor set of node \(i\). \(c_{ij}\) is equal to the product of the square root of node degrees: \(\sqrt{|\mathcal{N}(i)|}\sqrt{|\mathcal{N}(j)|}\). \(\sigma\) is an activation function.

The model parameters are initialized as in the original implementation where the weight \(W^{(l)}\) is initialized using Glorot uniform initialization and the bias is initialized to be zero.

Notes

Zero in degree nodes could lead to invalid normalizer. A common practice to avoid this is to add a self-loop for each node in the graph, which can be achieved by:

>>> g = ... # some DGLGraph
>>> g.add_edges(g.nodes(), g.nodes())

Parameters:

• in_feats (int) – Input feature size.
• out_feats (int) – Output feature size.
• norm (bool, optional) – If True, the normalizer \(c_{ij}\) is applied. Default: True.
• bias (bool, optional) – If True, adds a learnable bias to the output. Default: True.
• activation (callable activation function/layer or None, optional) – If not None, applies an activation function to the updated node features. Default: None.

weight

bias

• Output shape: \((N, *, \text{out_feats})\) where all but the last dimension are the same shape as the input.

Bases: torch.nn.modules.module.Module

Relational graph convolution layer.

Relational graph convolution is introduced in “Modeling Relational Data with Graph Convolutional Networks” and can be described as below:

where \(\mathcal{N}^r(i)\) is the neighbor set of node \(i\) w.r.t. relation \(r\). \(c_{i,r}\) is the normalizer equal to \(|\mathcal{N}^r(i)|\). \(\sigma\) is an activation function. \(W_0\) is the self-loop weight.

The basis regularization decomposes \(W_r\) by:

\[W_r^{(l)} = \sum_{b=1}^B a_{rb}^{(l)}V_b^{(l)}\]

where \(B\) is the number of bases.

The block-diagonal-decomposition regularization decomposes \(W_r\) into \(B\) number of block diagonal matrices. We refer \(B\) as the number of bases.

AtomicConv

Bases: torch.nn.modules.module.Module

Atomic Convolution Layer from paper Atomic Convolutional Networks for Predicting Protein-Ligand Binding Affinity.

We denote the type of atom \(i\) by \(z_i\) and the distance between atom \(i\) and \(j\) by \(r_{ij}\).

Distance Transformation

An atomic convolution layer first transforms distances with radial filters and then perform a pooling operation.

For radial filter indexed by \(k\), it projects edge distances with

\[h_{ij}^{k} = \exp(-\gamma_{k}|r_{ij}-r_{k}|^2)\]

If \(r_{ij} < c_k\),

\[f_{ij}^{k} = 0.5 * \cos(\frac{\pi r_{ij}}{c_k} + 1),\]

else,

\[f_{ij}^{k} = 0.\]

Finally,

\[e_{ij}^{k} = h_{ij}^{k} * f_{ij}^{k}\]

Aggregation

For each type \(t\), each atom collects distance information from all neighbor atoms of type \(t\):

\[p_{i, t}^{k} = \sum_{j\in N(i)} e_{ij}^{k} * 1(z_j == t)\]

We concatenate the results for all RBF kernels and atom types.

Notes

• This convolution operation is designed for molecular graphs in Chemistry, but it might be possible to extend it to more general graphs.
• There seems to be an inconsistency about the definition of \(e_{ij}^{k}\) in the paper and the author’s implementation. We follow the author’s implementation. In the paper, \(e_{ij}^{k}\) was defined as \(\exp(-\gamma_{k}|r_{ij}-r_{k}|^2 * f_{ij}^{k})\).
• \(\gamma_{k}\), \(r_k\) and \(c_k\) are all learnable.

Parameters:

• interaction_cutoffs (float32 tensor of shape (K)) – \(c_k\) in the equations above. Roughly they can be considered as learnable cutoffs and two atoms are considered as connected if the distance between them is smaller than the cutoffs. K for the number of radial filters.
• rbf_kernel_means (float32 tensor of shape (K)) – \(r_k\) in the equations above. K for the number of radial filters.
• rbf_kernel_scaling (float32 tensor of shape (K)) – \(\gamma_k\) in the equations above. K for the number of radial filters.
• features_to_use (None or float tensor of shape (T)) – In the original paper, these are atomic numbers to consider, representing the types of atoms. T for the number of types of atomic numbers. Default to None.

forward(graph, feat, distances)

Apply the atomic convolution layer.

Parameters:

• graph (DGLGraph or BatchedDGLGraph) – Topology based on which message passing is performed.
