From Abductive Explanations to Global Logical Rules for Node Classification in SGCs

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces a logic-based framework that extracts global logical rules for node classification in Simple Graph Convolution (SGC) networks. It uses minimal abductive explanations—small sets of node-feature pairs that preserve a node’s predicted class—as an intermediate step. Decision trees trained on these explanations yield compact global rules that retain high fidelity to the original SGC model, as demonstrated on benchmark datasets.

SLogic: Subgraph-Informed Logical Rule Learning for Knowledge Graph Completion

SLogic introduces a subgraph-informed approach to logical rule learning for knowledge graph completion, assigning query-dependent scores to rules instead of a single global weight. The framework uses a context-aware scoring function that evaluates the importance of a rule based on the local subgraph around the query’s head entity, aligning with the specificity principle of commonsense reasoning. Experiments on benchmark datasets demonstrate that SLogic performs competitively with other rule-based methods while producing human-readable, query-specific explanations.
