Concept Graph Convolutions: Message Passing in the Concept Space

ArXi:2604.20082v1 Announce Type: new The trust in the predictions of Graph Neural Networks is limited by their opaque reasoning process. Prior methods have tried to explain graph networks via concept-based explanations extracted from the latent representations obtained after message passing. However, these explanations fall short of explaining the message passing process itself. To this aim, we propose the Concept Graph Convolution, the first graph convolution designed to operate on node-level concepts for improved interpretability.
