Welcome to Spektral

Spektral is a Python library for graph deep learning, based on the Keras API and TensorFlow 2. The main goal of this project is to provide a simple but flexible framework for creating graph neural networks (GNNs).

You can use Spektral for classifying the users of a social network, predicting molecular properties, generating new graphs with GANs, clustering nodes, predicting links, and any other task where data is described by graphs.

Spektral implements some of the most popular layers for graph deep learning, including:

and many others (see convolutional layers).

You can also find pooling layers, including:

Spektral also includes lots of utilities for representing, manipulating, and transforming graphs in your graph deep learning projects.

See how to get started with Spektral and have a look at the examples for some templates.

The source code of the project is available on Github.

python setup.py install  # Or 'pip install .'

To install Spektral on Google Colab:

! pip install spektral

New in Spektral 1.0

The 1.0 release of Spektral is an important milestone for the library and brings many new features and improvements.

If you have already used Spektral in your projects, the only major change that you need to be aware of is the new datasets API.

This is a summary of the new features and changes:
