I see reset_parameters() in nn layers. It seems that it is 'a must' to do in GNN or PyG. Why should we use it? |

It isn't a must. It's just a convenient method to reset the parameters of a model, e.g., for re-using the model across different model initializations. It also follows best-practice from PyTorch, see here. |
