The proposed semivalue-based approach generates counterfactual explanations for node classification tasks in complex networks, eliminating the need for additional training. By computing Banzhaf values, this method achieves up to a fourfold speedup compared to Shapley values and is more efficient in noisy environments. The approach is demonstrated on three popular graph datasets, showing improved efficiency without compromising explanation quality.

This paper makes it easier to understand why Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) make certain predictions by providing counterfactual explanations. Unlike previous approaches that require extra training, this new method uses a special kind of calculation called Banzhaf values. This approach is faster and more efficient than others, even when there’s noise in the data. The researchers tested it on three different types of graph datasets and found it works well.
