, I current my newest open-source challenge — Authorities Funding Graph.
The inspiration for this challenge got here from a need to make higher tooling for grant writing, particularly to counsel analysis matters, funding our bodies, analysis establishments, and researchers. I’ve made Innovate UK grant functions previously, so I’ve had an curiosity within the authorities funding panorama for a while.
Concretely, quite a lot of the latest political discourse focuses on authorities spending, particularly Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in the US and comparable sentiments echoed right here within the UK, as Kier Starmer seems to combine AI into government.
Maybe the discharge of this challenge is sort of well timed. Albeit not the unique intention, I hope as a secondary consequence of this text is that it evokes extra exploration into open supply datasets for public spending.
I’ve used Networkx & PyVis to visualise the graph of UKRI API information. Then, I element a LlamaIndex graph RAG implementation. For completeness, I’ve additionally included my preliminary LangChain-based answer. The online framework is Streamlit, the demo is hosted on Streamlit neighborhood cloud.
This text incorporates the next sections.

1. Definitions
What’s UKRI?
UK Analysis and Innovation is a non-departmental public physique sponsored by the Division for Science, Innovation and Expertise (DSIT) that allocates funding for analysis and growth. Typically, funding is awarded to analysis establishments and companies.
“We make investments £8 billion of taxpayers’ cash annually into analysis and innovation and the individuals who make it occur. We work throughout an enormous vary of fields — from biodiversity conservation to quantum computing, and from house telescopes to revolutionary well being care. We give everybody the chance to contribute and to profit, bringing collectively individuals and organisations nationally and globally to create, develop and deploy new concepts and applied sciences.” — UKRI Website
What’s a Graph?
A graph is a handy information construction displaying the relationships between completely different entities (nodes) and their relationships to one another (edges). In some situations, we additionally affiliate these relationships with a numerical worth.
“In pc science, a graph is an summary information sort that’s meant to implement the undirected graph and directed graph ideas from the sphere of graph idea inside arithmetic.
A graph information construction consists of a finite (and probably mutable) set of vertices (additionally known as nodes or factors), along with a set of unordered pairs of those vertices for an undirected graph or a set of ordered pairs for a directed graph. These pairs are generally known as edges (additionally known as hyperlinks or traces), and for a directed graph are also called edges but in addition generally arrows or arcs.” — Wikipedia
What’s NetworkX?
NetworkX is a helpful library on this challenge to assemble and retailer our graph. Particularly, a digraph although the library helps many graph variants corresponding to multigraphs, the library additionally helps graph-related utility capabilities.
“NetworkX is a Python bundle for the creation, manipulation, and examine of the construction, dynamics, and capabilities of advanced networks.” — NetworkX Website
What’s PyVis?
We use the PyVis Python bundle to create dynamic community views for our graph, screenshots of those might be discovered all through the article.
“The pyvis library is supposed for fast era of visible community graphs with minimal python code. It’s designed as a wrapper across the widespread Javascript visJS library” — PyVis Docs
What’s LlamaIndex?
LlamaIndex is a well-liked library for LLM functions, together with assist for agentic workflows, we use it to carry out the graph RAG element of this challenge.
“LlamaIndex (GPT Index) is a knowledge framework in your LLM utility. Constructing with LlamaIndex sometimes entails working with LlamaIndex core and a selected set of integrations (or plugins).” — LlamaIndex Github
What’s Graph RAG?
Retrieval-augmented era, or RAG as it’s generally recognized, is an AI framework for which further context from an exterior information base is used to floor LLM solutions. Graph RAG, by extension, pertains to using a Graph to offer this extra context.
“GraphRAG is a strong retrieval mechanism that improves GenAI functions by making the most of the wealthy context in graph information constructions… Fundamental RAG programs rely solely on semantic search in vector databases to retrieve and rank units of remoted textual content fragments. Whereas this strategy can floor some related data, it fails to seize the context connecting these items. Because of this, fundamental RAG programs are ill-equipped to reply advanced, multi-hop questions. That is the place GraphRAG is available in. It makes use of information graphs to characterize and join data to seize not solely extra information factors but in addition their relationships. Thus, graph-based retrievers can present extra correct and related outcomes by uncovering hidden connections that aren’t usually apparent however are essential for correlating data.” — Neo4j Website
What’s Streamlit?
Streamlit is a light-weight Python internet framework we are going to use to create the online utility for this challenge.
“Streamlit is an open-source Python framework for information scientists and AI/ML engineers to ship dynamic information apps with just a few traces of code. Construct and deploy highly effective information apps in minutes.” — Streamlit website
2. UKRI API
The UKRI API is a service that facilitates entry to the general public UKRI grant funding dataset, authentication just isn’t required and the docs might be discovered here. I take advantage of solely two endpoints for our utility, they’re the Search projects endpoint and the Projects endpoint. This permits a person to seek for initiatives based mostly on a key phrase search and retrieve all project-specific data.
A search time period, web page dimension and web page quantity are offered as question string parameters. The question string parameters;
selectedSortableField=professional.am&selectedSortOrder=DESC
Be certain that the outcomes are returned by funded worth descending.
I’ve additionally included the code I used for asynchronous pagination.

return information3. Assemble NetworkX Graph
There are various kinds of graphs, and I elected for a directed graph the place the path of the perimeters are essential. Extra formally;
“A DiGraph shops nodes and edges with non-compulsory information, or attributes. DiGraphs maintain directed edges. Self loops are allowed however a number of (parallel) edges should not.” — NetworkX Website
To assemble the NetworkX graph, we should add nodes and edges — together with the sequential updating of node attributes.
The usual attributes, appropriate with PyVis graph rendering for nodes are as follows;
- Title (The label that seems on hover over)
- Group (The color coding)
- Dimension (How giant the nodes seem within the graph)
We additionally use the customized attribute “funding”, which we are going to use to sum all the funding for analysis and funding organizations. This can be normalized to set the node dimension in accordance with the proportion of whole funding for a specific group.
For our graph, we have now nodes from 4 teams. They’re categorised as: funder_name, lead_research_organisation, project_title and person_name.
HTML hyperlinks can be utilized within the node title to permit the person to simply click on by way of to a URL. I’ve included a helper operate to do that under. There are challenge, individuals, and analysis organisation-specific hyperlinks that, if redirected to offer further data to the person.
The code to assemble the NetworkX graph might be seen under. The DiGraph class has strategies to verify if a graph already has a node and equally for edges. There are additionally strategies for including nodes and edges. As we iterate by way of initiatives, we wish to sum the entire funding quantity for the funding group and lead analysis establishment. There are strategies to each get an attribute from a node within the graph and set an attribute on a node. Relying on the supply and vacation spot node, we additionally apply completely different titles and labels to replicate that particular predicate. These might be seen within the code under.

I enable the person to filter nodes by way of the UI to create a subgraph. The shape to do that in Streamlit is under. I additionally discover the neighbors of neighbors for the filtered nodes. I had some points with Pylint elevating pointless comprehension errors from the generator, which I’ve disabled — extra on Pylint later within the article. A smaller graph will take much less time to render and can be certain that irrelevant context can be excluded.

To provide the visualizations I’ve introduced earlier within the article, we should first convert the NetworkX graph to a PyVis community after which render the HTML file inside the Streamlit UI.
In case you are unfamiliar with Streamlit, you may see considered one of my different articles that discover the subject here.
Changing a NetworkX graph to PyVis format is comparatively trivial and might be achieved with the code under. The Community class is the principle class for visualization performance, first we instantiate the category and on this instance, the graph is directed. The barnes_hut methodology is then known as, which is a gravity mannequin. The from_nx methodology takes an present NetworkX graph as an argument and interprets it to PyVis, which is known as in place.

def convert_graph(graph):
"""

)
web.barnes_hut()
web.from_nx(graph)
return webTo render the Graph to the UI, we first create a novel person ID as we use the PyVis save_graph methodology to avoid wasting the HTML file for the graph on the server. The uuid ensures a novel file title, which is then learn into the streamlit UI and after the file is deleted.

source_code = html_file.learn()
st.elements.v1.html(source_code, top=650, width=650)
os.take away(file_name)6. Graph RAG Utilizing LlamaIndex
By graph retrieval-augmented era, we will question our graph information instantly, an instance might be seen within the prior screenshot. Extracted entities from the person question are appeared up within the graph to present particular context to the AI to floor its response, as this data would probably not have been within the coaching corpus, and therefore any reply given would have had an elevated chance of being a hallucination.
We create a chat engine to go a person’s earlier question historical past into the mannequin. Normally, the Open AI API secret is learn as an surroundings variable inside LlamaIndex — nonetheless, since that is user-submitted for our utility and we don’t wish to save customers’ Open AI credentials, we have to go credentials to the LLM and embedding mannequin lessons as key phrase arguments.
We then create an empty LlamaIndex Data Graph Index and populate the information graph by inserting triples. The triples come from traversing the perimeters of our NetworkX graph and calling the upsert_triplet_and_node methodology, which is able to create the triple and node in the event that they don’t exist already.
For the reason that graph is directed, we will interchange the themes and objects in order that the graph is traversable in both path. The chat engine makes use of the tree_summarize choice for the response builder.
“Tree summarize response builder. This response builder recursively merges textual content chunks and summarizes them in a bottom-up trend (i.e. constructing a tree from leaves to root). Extra concretely, at every recursively step: 1. we repack the textual content chunks so that every chunk fills the context window of the LLM 2. if there is just one chunk, we give the ultimate response 3. in any other case, we summarize every chunk and recursively summarize the summaries.”— LlamaIndex Website

Since I’ve left some feedback within the code to disable the linter within the examples above (examples are referenced from the GitHub repo), I believed I’d cowl the subject of linting briefly.
For these unfamiliar, linting helps to verify your code for potential bugs and stylistic points. Linters mechanically implement coding requirements.
To get began, set up Pylint by working the command.
pip set up pylintSecondly, we have to create a .pylintrc file on the root of the challenge (we will additionally set default international and user-specific settings relying on the place we create the .pylintrc file). To do that, you have to to run.
pylint --generate-rcfile > .pylintrcWe are able to configure this file to suit our preferences by updating the default values inside the .pylintrc file.
To run the linter manually, you should use.
pylint ./primary.py && pylint ./**/*.pyWhen the Docker picture is constructed, it should mechanically run Pylint and lift an error ought to it detect a problem with the code. This may be seen within the Dockerfile.
FROM python:3.10.16 AS base
WORKDIR /app
COPY necessities.txt .
RUN pip set up --upgrade pip
RUN pip set up -r necessities.txt
COPY . .
RUN mkdir -p /app/output
RUN pylint ./primary.py && pylint ./**/*.py
RUN python -m unittest -v assessments.test_ukri_utils.Testing
CMD ["streamlit", "run", "./main.py"]A preferred formatter that you may additionally discover helpful is Black —
“Black is a PEP 8 compliant opinionated formatter. Black reformats complete recordsdata in place.”
