Documentation ([Latest](https://docs.dgl.ai/en/latest/) | [Stable](https://docs.dgl.ai)) | [DGL at a glance](https://docs.dgl.ai/tutorials/basics/1_first.html#sphx-glr-tutorials-basics-1-first-py) | [Model Tutorials](https://docs.dgl.ai/tutorials/models/index.html) | [Discussion Forum](https://discuss.dgl.ai)
DGL is an easy-to-use, high performance and scalable Python package for deep learning on graphs. DGL is framework agnostic, meaning if a deep graph model is a component of an end-to-end application, the rest of the logics can be implemented in any major frameworks, such as PyTorch, Apache MXNet or TensorFlow.

03/02/2020: **Check out this cool paper: [Benchmarking Graph Neural Networks](https://arxiv.org/abs/2003.00982)!** It includes a DGL-based benchmark framework for novel medium-scale graph datasets, covering mathematical modeling, computer vision, chemistry and combinatorial problems. See [repo here](https://github.com/graphdeeplearning/benchmarking-gnns).
## Using DGL
**A data scientist** may want to apply a pre-trained model to your data right away. For this you can use DGL's [Application packages, formally *Model Zoo*](https://github.com/dmlc/dgl/tree/master/apps). Application packages are developed for domain applications, as is the case for [DGL-LifeScience](https://github.com/dmlc/dgl/tree/master/apps/life_sci). We will soon add model zoo for knowledge graph embedding learning and recommender systems. Here's how you will use a pretrained model:
```python
from dgl.data.chem import Tox21, smiles_to_bigraph, CanonicalAtomFeaturizer
from dgl import model_zoo
dataset = Tox21(smiles_to_bigraph, CanonicalAtomFeaturizer())
model = model_zoo.chem.load_pretrained('GCN_Tox21') # Pretrained model loaded
model.eval()
smiles, g, label, mask = dataset[0]
feats = g.ndata.pop('h')
label_pred = model(g, feats)
```
**Further reading**: DGL is released as a managed service on AWS SageMaker, see the medium posts for an easy trip to DGL on SageMaker([part1](https://medium.com/@julsimon/a-primer-on-graph-neural-networks-with-amazon-neptune-and-the-deep-graph-library-5ce64984a276) and [part2](https://medium.com/@julsimon/deep-graph-library-part-2-training-on-amazon-sagemaker-54d318dfc814)).
**Researchers** can start from the growing list of [models implemented in DGL](https://github.com/dmlc/dgl/tree/master/examples). Developing new models does not mean that you have to start from scratch. Instead, you can reuse many [pre-built modules](https://docs.dgl.ai/api/python/nn.html). Here is how to get a standard two-layer graph convolutional model with a pre-built GraphConv module:
```python
from dgl.nn.pytorch import GraphConv
import torch.nn.functional as F
# build a two-layer GCN with ReLU as the activation in between
class GCN(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, in_feats, h_feats, num_classes):
super(GCN, self).__init__()
self.gcn_layer1 = GraphConv(in_feats, h_feats)
self.gcn_layer2 = GraphConv(h_feats, num_classes)
def forward(self, graph, inputs):
h = self.gcn_layer1(graph, inputs)
h = F.relu(h)
h = self.gcn_layer2(graph, h)
return h
```
Next level down, you may want to innovate your own module. DGL offers a succinct message-passing interface (see tutorial [here](https://docs.dgl.ai/tutorials/basics/3_pagerank.html)). Here is how Graph Attention Network (GAT) is implemented ([complete codes](https://docs.dgl.ai/api/python/nn.pytorch.html#gatconv)). Of course, you can also find GAT as a module [GATConv](https://docs.dgl.ai/api/python/nn.pytorch.html#gatconv):
```python
import torch.nn as nn
import torch.nn.functional as F
# Define a GAT layer
class GATLayer(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, in_feats, out_feats):
super(GATLayer, self).__init__()
self.linear_func = nn.Linear(in_feats, out_feats, bias=False)
self.attention_func = nn.Linear(2 * out_feats, 1, bias=False)
def edge_attention(self, edges):
concat_z = torch.cat([edges.src['z'], edges.dst['z']], dim=1)
src_e = self.attention_func(concat_z)
src_e = F.leaky_relu(src_e)
return {'e': src_e}
def message_func(self, edges):
return {'z': edges.src['z'], 'e':edges.data['e']}
def reduce_func(self, nodes):
a = F.softmax(nodes.mailbox['e'], dim=1)
h = torch.sum(a * nodes.mailbox['z'], dim=1)
return {'h': h}
def forward(self, graph, h):
z = self.linear_func(h)
graph.ndata['z'] = z
graph.apply_edges(self.edge_attention)
graph.update_all(self.message_func, self.reduce_func)
return graph.ndata.pop('h')
```
## Performance and Scalability
**Microbenchmark on speed and memory usage**: While leaving tensor and autograd functions to backend frameworks (e.g. PyTorch, MXNet, and TensorFlow), DGL aggressively optimizes storage and computation with its own kernels. Here's a comparison to another popular package -- PyTorch Geometric (PyG). The short story is that raw speed is similar, but DGL has much better memory management.

High memory utilization allows DGL to push the limit of single-GPU performance, as seen in below images.

| -------- | -------- |
**Scalability**: DGL has fully leveraged multiple GPUs in both one machine and clusters for increasing training speed, and has better performance than alternatives, as seen in below images.
