Introduced by William L. Hamilton et al. in Inductive Representation Learning on Large Graphs1 Jan 2017 archive 2025-07-28

The Reddit dataset is a graph dataset from Reddit posts made in the month of September, 2014. The node label in this case is the community, or “subreddit”, that a post belongs to. 50 large communities have been sampled to build a post-to-post graph, connecting posts if the same user comments on both. In total this dataset contains 232,965 posts with an average degree of 492. The first 20 days are used for training and the remaining days for testing (with 30% used for validation). For features, off-the-shelf 300-dimensional GloVe CommonCrawl word vectors are used.

Papers archive 2025-07-28

30 shown of 37 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 699. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
