News

[2025.06.18] 🔥 Router-R1 has officially been released, which is a cutting-edge, reinforcement learning-driven LLM router designed to enable seamless collaboration among multiple LLMs to tackle complex problems efficiently. Explore the project and get started here: Router-R1. Stay updated with the latest news and developments by following us on Twitter!

📊 We also benchmark GraphRouter on the collected router dataset in Router-R1, demonstrating its strong performance across multiple QA benchmarks under different LLM settings.

Environment Setup

# create a new environment
conda create -n graphrouter python=3.10
conda activate graphrouter

# install pytorch. Modify the command to align with your own CUDA version.
pip3 install torch  --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118

# install related libraries
pip install -r requirements.txt


# install pyg
pip install torch_geometric
pip install pyg_lib torch_scatter torch_sparse torch_cluster torch_spline_conv -f https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-2.1.0+cu118.html

Dataset Preparation

First, generate 'data/unified_qa_data.csv'.

python data_processing/multidata_unify.py

Then, generate data/router_data.csv and configs/llm_description_embedding.pkl by setting your api_key in configs/config.yaml.

python data_processing/construct_router_data.py

For your convenience, we provide download links for the 'unified_qa_data.csv' and 'router_data.csv' files we generated. Please download them and put them in data folder.
