1. Comet ML for logging. You will need an API key, username, and project name to do online logging.
2. Pytorch version=1.0
3. scikit-learn
4. tqdm for progress bar
5. pickle
6. json
7. joblib
8. networkx for creating reddit graph

To conduct experiments you will need to download the appropriate datasets and preprocess them with the given preprocesssing scripts. This will involve changing the file paths from their default ones. For FB15k-237 there is the main dataset as well as the entity types dataset (links are provided in the main paper). Further, note that reddit uses 2 steps of preprocessing, the first to parse the json objects and then a second one to create the K-core graph.

Sample Commands

To reproduce the results we provide sample commands. Command Line arguments control which sensitive attributes are use and whether there is a compositional adversary or not.
