PyTorch Geometric Signed Directed: A Survey and Software on Graph Neural Networks for Signed and Directed Graphs
share
Signed networks are ubiquitous in many real-world applications (e.g., social networks encoding trust/distrust relationships, correlation networks arising from time series data). While many signed networks are directed, there is a lack of survey papers and software packages on graph neural networks (GNNs) specially designed for directed networks. In this paper, we present PyTorch Geometric Signed Directed, a survey and software on GNNs for signed and directed networks. We review typical tasks, loss functions and evaluation metrics in the analysis of signed and directed networks, discuss data used in related experiments, and provide an overview of methods proposed. The deep learning framework consists of easy-to-use GNN models, synthetic and real-world data, as well as task-specific evaluation metrics and loss functions for signed and directed networks. The software is presented in a modular fashion, so that signed and directed networks can also be treated separately. As an extension library for PyTorch Geometric, our proposed software is maintained with open-source releases, detailed documentation, continuous integration, unit tests and code coverage checks. Our code is publicly available at <https://github.com/SherylHYX/pytorch_geometric_signed_directed>.
