KS-GNNExplainer: Global Model Interpretation Through Instance Explanations On Histopathology images
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.
