dgl.add_self_loop

dgl.add_self_loop(g, edge_feat_names=None, fill_data=1.0, etype=None)[source]

Add self-loops for each node in the graph and return a new graph.

Parameters:
  • g (DGLGraph) – The graph.

  • edge_feat_names (list[str], optional) – The names of the self-loop features to apply fill_data. If None, it will apply fill_data to all self-loop features. Default: None.

  • fill_data (int, float or str, optional) –

    The value to fill the self-loop features. Default: 1.

    • If fill_data is int or float, self-loop features will be directly given by fill_data.

    • if fill_data is str, self-loop features will be generated by aggregating the features of the incoming edges of the corresponding nodes. The supported aggregation are: 'mean', 'sum', 'max', 'min'.

  • etype (str or (str, str, str), optional) –

    The type names of the edges. The allowed type name formats are:

    • (str, str, str) for source node type, edge type and destination node type.

    • or one str edge type name if the name can uniquely identify a triplet format in the graph.

    Can be omitted if the graph has only one type of edges.

Returns:

The graph with self-loops.

Return type:

DGLGraph

Notes

  • The function only supports homogeneous graphs or heterogeneous graphs but the relation graph specified by the etype argument is homogeneous.

  • The function adds self-loops regardless of whether they already exist or not. If one wishes to have exactly one self-loop for every node, call remove_self_loop() before invoking add_self_loop().

  • This function discards the batch information. Please use dgl.DGLGraph.set_batch_num_nodes() and dgl.DGLGraph.set_batch_num_edges() on the transformed graph to maintain the information.

Examples

>>> import dgl
>>> import torch

Homogeneous Graphs

>>> g = dgl.graph((torch.tensor([0, 0, 2]), torch.tensor([2, 1, 0])))
>>> g.ndata['hv'] = torch.arange(3).float().reshape(-1, 1)
>>> g.edata['he'] = torch.arange(3).float().reshape(-1, 1)
>>> g = dgl.add_self_loop(g, fill_data='sum')
>>> g
Graph(num_nodes=3, num_edges=6,
    ndata_schemes={'hv': Scheme(shape=(1,), dtype=torch.float32)}
    edata_schemes={'he': Scheme(shape=(1,), dtype=torch.float32)})
>>> g.edata['he']
tensor([[0.],
        [1.],
        [2.],
        [2.],
        [1.],
        [0.]])

Heterogeneous Graphs

>>> g = dgl.heterograph({
...     ('user', 'follows', 'user'): (torch.tensor([1, 2]),
...                                   torch.tensor([0, 1])),
...     ('user', 'plays', 'game'): (torch.tensor([0, 1]),
...                                 torch.tensor([0, 1]))})
>>> g = dgl.add_self_loop(g, etype='follows')
>>> g
Graph(num_nodes={'user': 3, 'game': 2},
      num_edges={('user', 'plays', 'game'): 2, ('user', 'follows', 'user'): 5},
      metagraph=[('user', 'user'), ('user', 'game')])
