RelShap: Relationally Consistent Shapley Explanations
arXiv:2608. 11508v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning pipelines commonly flatten relational data into single-table representations, discarding structural constraints.
arXiv:2606. 15273v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Shapley value-based feature attribution methods face challenges in scenarios involving complex feature interactions and causal relationships, even when a causal structure is provided.
arXiv:2608. 11508v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning pipelines commonly flatten relational data into single-table representations, discarding structural constraints.
arXiv:2607. 16236v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Explainability methods for time series models predominantly produce flat attribution scores: they quantify the direct influence of a feature at a timestamp by a scalar.
arXiv:2608. 03772v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Explaining the predictions of neural networks is a central challenge in trustworthy AI.
arXiv:2608. 03868v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Causal Discovery (CD) from observational data faces two fundamental challenges.
arXiv:2607. 11510v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal discovery from observational tabular data remains fundamentally challenging, primarily due to the heterogeneity of underlying causal mechanisms and the high-dimensional combinatorial search space of Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs).
arXiv:2606. 03885v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Feature attribution methods explain predictions by assigning importance scores to input features.
arXiv:2604. 15107v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Shapley values provide a flexible framework for attributing feature contributions to model predictions, but they are not naturally suited for feature selection: a feature may receive a positive attribution even when it is redundant given the remaining variables.
arXiv:2601. 16249v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning DAG structures from purely observational data remains a long-standing challenge across scientific domains.
arXiv:2606. 03251v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In nature, events that affect some individuals or groups but not others constitute an implicit intervention and are known as natural experiments.
arXiv:2606. 10942v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) models become integral to network operations, their lack of transparency poses a significant barrier to operator trust.
arXiv:2608. 02877v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal discovery recovers directed structure from observational data and is increasingly used in clinical settings to support mechanism reasoning and fairness audits of predictive models.
arXiv:2608. 04930v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bayesian causal discovery seeks to determine the posterior distribution of causal theories, which are interpreted as directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) that explain the observed data.
