HyDGL is a Python parser for generating descriptive graphs based on quantum chemistry data ready for use in Graph Neural Networks. In particular it provides the following features:
adaptable generation of graph representations based on quantum chemistry data
- connectivity based on NBO data or bond orders
- features (both periodic table properties and quantum chemistry based)
export of graphs as networkx objects or pytorch_geometric graphs
So far most graph representation learning approaches in quantum chemistry focus on organic molecules and build graphs based on geometry using basic features. For the accurate prediction of more complicated compounds (such as transition metal complexes) richer representations are required that include more of the relevant physics. This package provides the functionality to generate such graphs mainly based on Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) data and is the code associated with the paper Deep Learning Metal Complex Properties with Natural Quantum Graphs.
The package can be used for any types of molecules but is aimed at transition metal complexes, more precisely the tmQM data set.
This package requires a Python (>3.9.x) installation with the following packages:
pytorchpytorch_geometricplotly
The package can be installed directly from this repository with pip:
pip install git+https://github.com/hkneiding/HyDGL
which installs HyDGL as a library to your Python installation or virtual environment.
Afterwards you can import the library with:
>>> import HyDGLA more detailed guide on the usage can be found in the documentation.
There are two main parts in the HyDGL package. The first one is the GraphGenerator class that generates graphs based on specified parameters. Secondly there is the Graph class which represents a full graph in terms of nodes, edges, their respective features, graph-level features and attributes/labels. Furthemore, it includes functionality to produce objects in a format ready to use with the networkx and pytorch_geometric package. The remaining classes are mainly miscellaneous helper classes and enums.This general structure is displayed by the following UML diagram.
