Requirements

  • python >= 3.7, PyTorch >= 1.4, please refer to their official websites for installation details.
  • Other dependencies:
pandas==0.24.2
tqdm==4.41.1
numpy==1.16.4
scikit_learn==0.22.1
matploblib==3.3.1

Dataset and preprocessing

Option 1: Use our preprocessed data

We provide preprocessed datasets: Reddit, Wikipedia, Enron, and UCI. Download them from here to processed/. Then run the following:

cd processed/
unzip data.zip

You may check that each dataset corresponds to three files: one .csv containing timestamped links, and two .npy as node & link features. Note that some datasets do not have node & link features, in which case the .npy files will be all zeros.

Option 2: Use your own data

Put your data under processed folder. The required input data includes ml_${DATA_NAME}.csv, ml_${DATA_NAME}.npy and ml_${DATA_NAME}_node.npy. They store the edge linkages, edge features and node features respectively.

The .csv file has following columns

u, i, ts, label, idx

, which represents source node index, target node index, time stamp, edge label and the edge index.

ml_${DATA_NAME}.npy has shape of [#temporal edges + 1, edge features dimention]. Similarly, ml_${DATA_NAME}_node.npy has shape of [#nodes + 1, node features dimension].

All node index starts from 1. The zero index is reserved for null during padding operations. So the maximum of node index equals to the total number of nodes. Similarly, maxinum of edge index equals to the total number of temporal edges. The padding embeddings or the null embeddings is a vector of zeros.

We also recommend discretizing the timestamps (ts) into integers for better indexing.

Training Commands

Examples:

  • To train CAW-N-mean with Wikipedia dataset in inductive training, sampling 64 length-2 CAWs every node, and with alpha = 1e-5:
python main.py -d wikipedia --pos_dim 108 --bs 32 --n_degree 64 1 --mode i --bias 1e-5 --pos_enc lp --walk_pool sum --seed 0
  • To train CAW-N-attn with UCI dataset in transductive mode, sampling 32 length-1 CAWs every node, with alpha = 1e-6, and using another random seed 123:
python main.py -d uci --pos_dim 100 --bs 32 --n_degree 32 --n_layer 1 --mode t --bias 1e-6 --pos_enc lp --walk_pool attn --seed 123

Detailed logs can be found in log/, a one-line summary of the evaluation result will also be written to log/oneline_summary.log upon completion.
