The whole point of GNNs is that they generalize to arbitrary topologies by explicitly conditioning the idea of "neighbours" on the graph specifying the topology. Graph layout has been tried here https://github.com/limbo018/DREAMPlace to great fanfare although there is recent drama about it https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/The-False-Dawn%3A-Reev... . Graph transformations are a thing as well https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.01470 but it's a tricky problem because you implicitly need to solve the graph matching problem

Graph layout is extremely interesting for infographics, since a handmade graph will almost always beat what tools such as graphviz can come up with (and I'm not even mentioning algorithms that go beyond Sugiyama's for which there is only a paper).

Any progress on this front ?
