We propose RBF-GNN, a new pseudo-coordinate based graph neural network architecture that takes into account Euclidean, spherical or angular coordinates and uses them to induce a powerful spatial inductive bias. Similar in architecture to SplineCNN, we improve upon the latter by replacing the less efficient sparse-activation based B-splines whose number grows exponentially with dimension by rational Padé basis functions. For effective training we propose a spline-subspace initialization and a variance-preserving weight rescaling. Experimentally, we evaluate on a number of popular neural network architectures that use SplineCNNs. We replace only the SplineCNNs with RBF-GNN. We achieve improved results, including on semantic keypoint matching, shape matching, event based camera computer vision tasks. We will make our implementation publicly available upon acceptance of the paper.
