πŸ“Œ Overview

TopoBenchmarkX (TBX) is a modular Python library designed to standardize benchmarking and accelerate research in Topological Deep Learning (TDL). In particular, TBX allows to train and compare the performances of all sorts of Topological Neural Networks (TNNs) across the different topological domains, where by topological domain we refer to a graph, a simplicial complex, a cellular complex, or a hypergraph. For detailed information, please refer to the TopoBenchmarkX: A Framework for Benchmarking Topological Deep Learning paper.

The main pipeline trains and evaluates a wide range of state-of-the-art TNNs and Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) (see βš™οΈ Neural Networks) on numerous and varied datasets and benchmark tasks (see πŸ“š Datasets ).

Additionally, the library offers the ability to transform, i.e. lift, each dataset from one topological domain to another (see πŸš€ Liftings), enabling for the first time an exhaustive inter-domain comparison of TNNs.

🧩 Get Started

Create Environment

If you do not have conda on your machine, please follow their guide to install it.

First, clone the TopoBenchmarkX repository and set up a conda environment tbx with python 3.11.3.

git clone git@github.com:pyt-team/topobenchmarkx.git
cd TopoBenchmarkX
conda create -n tbx python=3.11.3

Next, check the CUDA version of your machine:

/usr/local/cuda/bin/nvcc --version

and ensure that it matches the CUDA version specified in the env_setup.sh file (CUDA=cu121 by default). If it does not match, update env_setup.sh accordingly by changing both the CUDA and TORCH environment variables to compatible values as specified on this website.

Next, set up the environment with the following command.

source env_setup.sh

This command installs the TopoBenchmarkX library and its dependencies.

Run Training Pipeline

Next, train the neural networks by running the following command:

python -m topobenchmarkx 

Thanks to hydra implementation, one can easily override the default experiment configuration through the command line. For instance, the model and dataset can be selected as:

python -m topobenchmarkx model=cell/cwn dataset=graph/MUTAG

Remark: By default, our pipeline identifies the source and destination topological domains, and applies a default lifting between them if required.

The same CLI override mechanism also applies when modifying more finer configurations within a CONFIG GROUP. Please, refer to the official hydradocumentation for further details.

🚲 Experiments Reproducibility

To reproduce Table 1 from the TopoBenchmarkX: A Framework for Benchmarking Topological Deep Learning paper, please run the following command:

bash scripts/reproduce.sh

Remark: We have additionally provided a public W&B (Weights & Biases) project with logs for the corresponding runs (updated on June 11, 2024).

πŸš€ Liftings

We list the liftings used in TopoBenchmarkX to transform datasets. Here, a lifting refers to a function that transforms a dataset defined on a topological domain (e.g., on a graph) into the same dataset but supported on a different topological domain (e.g., on a simplicial complex).

Topology Liftings

Graph2Simplicial

Name Description Reference
CliqueLifting The algorithm finds the cliques in the graph and creates simplices. Given a clique the first simplex added is the one containing all the nodes of the clique, then the simplices composed of all the possible combinations with one node missing, then two nodes missing, and so on, until all the possible pairs are added. Then the method moves to the next clique. Simplicial Complexes
KHopLifting For each node in the graph, take the set of its neighbors, up to k distance, and the node itself. These sets are then treated as simplices. The dimension of each simplex depends on the degree of the nodes. For example, a node with d neighbors forms a d-simplex. Neighborhood Complexes

Graph2Cell

Name Description Reference
CellCycleLifting To lift a graph to a cell complex (CC) we proceed as follows. First, we identify a finite set of cycles (closed loops) within the graph. Second, each identified cycle in the graph is associated to a 2-cell, such that the boundary of the 2-cell is the cycle. The nodes and edges of the cell complex are inherited from the graph. Appendix B

Graph2Hypergraph

Name Description Reference
KHopLifting For each node in the graph, the algorithm finds the set of nodes that are at most k connections away from the initial node. This set is then used to create an hyperedge. The process is repeated for all nodes in the graph. Section 3.4
KNearestNeighborsLifting For each node in the graph, the method finds the k nearest nodes by using the Euclidean distance between the vectors of features. The set of k nodes found is considered as an hyperedge. The proces is repeated for all nodes in the graph. Section 3.1
Feature Liftings
Name Description Supported Domains
ProjectionSum Projects r-cell features of a graph to r+1-cell structures utilizing incidence matrices (B_{r}). Simplicial, Cell
ConcatenationLifting Concatenate r-cell features to obtain r+1-cell features. Simplicial

πŸ› οΈ Development

To join the development of TopoBenchmarkX, you should install the library in dev mode.

For this, you can create an environment using either conda or docker. Both options are detailed below.

🐍 Using Conda Environment

Follow the steps in 🧩 Get Started.

🐳 Using Docker

For ease of use, TopoBenchmarkX employs Docker. To set it up on your system you can follow their guide. once installed, please follow the next steps:

First, clone the repository and navigate to the correct folder.

git clone git@github.com:pyt-team/topobenchmarkx.git
cd TopoBenchmarkX

Then, build the Docker image.

docker build -t topobenchmarkx:new .

Depending if you want to use GPUs or not, these are the commands to run the Docker image and mount the current directory.

With GPUs

docker run -it -d --gpus all --volume $(pwd):/TopoBenchmarkX topobenchmarkx:new

With CPU

docker run -it -d --volume $(pwd):/TopoBenchmarkX topobenchmarkx:new

Happy development!
