Benchmarking

First, install all useful dependencies through:

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -r requirements_torch_geometric.txt

If you want to train again all models, run the following:

python -u start_experiments.py --config <dataset_name>

where dataset_name is one of the datasets in our benchmarks.

If you just want to run the generations of the results, run the following:

python -u start_experiments.py --config <dataset_name>_results

where dataset_name is one of the datasets in our benchmarks.

Note that the results may slightly differ from the ones provided here and in the paper, depending on the machine you are running the experiments on.
