A logic-based interpretable model for learning on graphs is proposed, along with an algorithm to distill this model from a Graph Neural Network (GNN). The model leverages an extension of the two-variable fragment of first-order logic with counting quantifiers (C2) to distill interpretable logical classifiers. The approach is tested on multiple GNN architectures, and the distilled models are found to be interpretable, succinct, and achieve similar accuracy to the underlying GNN. Furthermore, when the ground truth is expressible in C2, the approach outperforms the GNN.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper creates a way to learn about graphs using logic, which helps us understand how the model works. It takes a Graph Neural Network (GNN) and makes it simpler and easier to read, while keeping its accuracy. This is important because GNNs are hard to understand, but we can use this approach to make them more interpretable.
