# LoReC: Rethinking Large Language Models for Graph Data Analysis

This repository contains data associated with the paper [LoReC: Rethinking Large Language Models for Graph Data Analysis](https://huggingface.co/papers/2604.17897).

[**GitHub Repository**](https://github.com/Git-King-Zhan/LoReC)

## Introduction
LoReC (Look, Remember, Contrast) is a novel plug-and-play method for the GraphLLM paradigm. It enhances the understanding of graph data in Large Language Models through three stages: 
1. **Look**: Redistributing attention to the graph.
2. **Remember**: Re-injecting graph information into the Feed-Forward Network (FFN).
3. **Contrast**: Rectifying the vanilla logits produced in the decoding process.

This method improves performance on graph-related tasks without requiring extra fine-tuning.

## Usage
The graph data in this project is typically stored in PyTorch Geometric (PyG) format within `.pt` files. You can load the data as follows:

```python
import torch as th

# Load the graph data
graph_data = th.load('all_graph_data.pt')

# Access specific dataset components (e.g., 'arxiv')
arxiv_graph = graph_data['arxiv']
```
