Property-Driven GNN Benchmark
A large-scale benchmark for evaluating the expressive power of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) across 16 fundamental graph properties. This dataset accompanies the paper "Systematic Property-Driven Evaluation of GNN Expressiveness".
Summary
The benchmark contains 352 graph-classification datasets organized into two families:
- GraphRandom (176 datasets): graphs that either satisfy or randomly violate a given property.
- GraphPerturb (176 datasets): each positive graph is paired with a structurally similar negative counterpart that differs by only one or two edges.
All datasets were generated using Alloy, a relational-logic specification language and SAT-based analyzer, ensuring exhaustive enumeration of positive samples and verifiable negative samples.
Quick Start
Download the entire dataset
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
snapshot_download(
repo_id="anonymousPaper5674/property-driven-gnn",
repo_type="dataset",
local_dir="./dataset",
)
Load a single CSV file and reconstruct one graph
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
# Each row encodes one graph
df = pd.read_csv("./dataset/GraphRandom-Train/antisymmetric.csv", header=None)
row = df.iloc[0].values
n = int(np.sqrt(len(row) - 1)) # graph size (number of nodes)
adj = row[:-1].reshape(n, n) # n x n adjacency matrix (directed)
label = int(row[-1]) # 1 if the graph satisfies the property, else 0
print(f"Graph with {n} nodes, label = {label}")
print(adj)
Data Format
Each CSV file represents one dataset. The format is:
- No header row.
- Each row encodes one graph.
- The first n² values are the entries of the n×n adjacency matrix, flattened in row-major order:
adj[i][j] = row[i * n + j]. - The last value is the binary label:
1if the graph satisfies the property,0otherwise. - Edges are directed:
adj[i][j] = 1means there is an edge from node i to node j. - Self-loops are allowed (diagonal entries can be
1). - Graph size n can be inferred from the row length:
n = sqrt(len(row) - 1).
