## What it is
A PyTorch library implementing DeepGCNs, DeeperGCN, and GNN1000 - graph convolutional network architectures that borrow residual/dense connections and dilated convolutions from CNNs to enable very deep GCN training. It includes a GCN library plus example code for point cloud classification/segmentation, protein-protein interaction node classification, and OGB benchmarks.

## Use cases
- train very deep graph convolutional networks in pytorch
- semantic segmentation of 3d point clouds
- classify point cloud models like modelnet40
- node classification on protein interaction or ogb datasets
- apply residual and dilated convolutions to graph neural networks
- reproduce deepgcn research results

## When to choose
- you need proven deep GCN architectures with pretrained models
- you work on 3D point cloud segmentation or classification with PyTorch
- you want to experiment with very deep GNNs (up to 1000 layers) on OGB benchmarks

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose GNN framework rather than specific research models
- you want actively maintained code - the last release was 2022
- you prefer TensorFlow or frameworks other than PyTorch/PyG
