Graph neural networks and its variants

--------------------------------------------



* **Graph convolutional network (GCN)** `[research paper] <https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.02907>`__ `[tutorial]

* **Graph attention network (GAT)** `[research paper] <https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.10903>`__ `[tutorial]

  <1_gnn/9_gat.html>`__ `[Pytorch code]

  `[MXNet code]

  <https://github.com/dmlc/dgl/tree/master/examples/mxnet/gat>`__:

  GAT extends the GCN functionality by deploying multi-head attention

  among neighborhood of a node. This greatly enhances the capacity and

  expressiveness of the model.



* **Relational-GCN** `[research paper] <https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.06103>`__ `[tutorial]

  <1_gnn/4_rgcn.html>`__ `[Pytorch code]

  <https://github.com/dmlc/dgl/tree/master/examples/pytorch/rgcn>`__

  `[MXNet code]

  <https://github.com/dmlc/dgl/tree/master/examples/mxnet/rgcn>`__:

  Relational-GCN allows multiple edges among two entities of a

  graph. Edges with distinct relationships are encoded differently. 



* **Line graph neural network (LGNN)** `[research paper] <https://openreview.net/pdf?id=H1g0Z3A9Fm>`__ `[tutorial]

  <1_gnn/6_line_graph.html>`__ `[Pytorch code]

  <https://github.com/dmlc/dgl/tree/master/examples/pytorch/line_graph>`__:

  This network focuses on community detection by inspecting graph structures. It

  uses representations of both the original graph and its line-graph

  companion. In addition to demonstrating how an algorithm can harness multiple

  graphs, this implementation shows how you can judiciously mix simple tensor

  operations and sparse-matrix tensor operations, along with message-passing with

  DGL.
