• Abstract: Instance-level graph neural network explainers have proven beneficial for explaining such networks on histopathology images. However, there has been few methods that provide model explanations, which are common patterns among samples within the same class. We envision that graph-based histopathological image analysis can benefit significantly from such explanations. On the other hand, current model-level explainers are based on graph generation methods that are not applicable in this domain because of no corresponding image for their generated graphs in real world. Therefore, such explanations are communicable to the experts. To follow this vision, we developed KS-GNNExplainer, the first instance-level graph neural network explainer that leverages current instance-level approaches in an effective manner to provide more informative and reliable explainable outputs, which are crucial for applied AI in the health domain. Our experiments on various datasets, and based on both quantitative and qualitative measures, demonstrate that the proposed explainer is capable of being a global pattern extractor, which is a fundamental limitation of current instance-level approaches in this domain.

  Second-order explainable AI (SOXAI) was recently proposed to extend explainable AI (XAI) from the instance level to the dataset level. We demonstrate for the first time, via example classification and segmentation cases, that eliminating irrelevant concepts from the training set based on actionable insights from SOXAI can enhance a model's performance.

In this paper, we advance the Information Bottleneck principle (IB) to tackle the proposed explanation problem for unsupervised graph representations, which leads to a novel principle, textitUnsupervised Subgraph Information Bottleneck (USIB) We also theoretically analyze the connection between graph representations and explanatory subgraphs on the label space, which reveals that the robustness of representations benefit the fidelity of explanatory subgraphs.

  Heterogeneous graph neural network (HGNN) is a very popular technique for the modeling and analysis of heterogeneous graphs. We develop for the first time a novel and robust heterogeneous graph contrastive learning approach, namely HGCL, which introduces two views on respective guidance of node attributes and graph topologies. In this new approach, we adopt distinct but most suitable attribute and topology fusion mechanisms in the two views, which are conducive to mining relevant information in attributes and topologies separately.
