Explanation-Preserving Augmentation for Semi-Supervised Graph Representation Learning

AAAI 2026technical

Self-supervised graph representation learning (GRL) typically generates paired graph augmentations from each graph to infer similar representations for augmentations of the same graph, but distinguishable representations for different graphs. While effective augmentation requires both semantics-pres

F-Fidelity: A Robust Framework for Faithfulness Evaluation of Explainable AI

ICLR 2025poster

Recent research has developed a number of eXplainable AI (XAI) techniques, such as gradient-based approaches, input perturbation-base methods, and black-box explanation methods. While these XAI techniques can extract meaningful insights from deep learning models, how to properly evaluate them remain…

TimeX++: Learning Time-Series Explanations with Information Bottleneck

ICML 2024poster

Explaining deep learning models operating on time series data is crucial in various applications of interest which require interpretable and transparent insights from time series signals. In this work, we investigate this problem from an information theoretic perspective and show that most existing…

Towards Robust Fidelity for Evaluating Explainability of Graph Neural Networks

ICLR 2024poster

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are neural models that leverage the dependency structure in graphical data via message passing among the graph nodes. GNNs have emerged as pivotal architectures in analyzing graph-structured data, and their expansive application in sensitive domains requires a comprehens…

On Throughput of Millimeter Wave MIMO Systems with Low Resolution ADCs

ICASSP 2020accepted

Use of low resolution analog to digital converters (ADCs) is an effective way to reduce the high power consumption of millimeter wave (mmWave) receivers. In this paper, a receiver with low resolution ADCs based on adaptive thresholds is considered in downlink mmWave communications in which the chann…
