Concept bottleneck models (CBMs) are neural classifiers that allow to explain their decisions via high-level concepts, potentially enabling understanding, steering and debugging. However, their explanations are often derived heuristically. Building on formal explainability, we argue they should also be faithful, i.e., …

Explainers for Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are commonly evaluated by their plausibility, i.e., how well their explanations recover a predefined ground truth, such as a motif planted in the data. This protocol implicitly assumes that a GNN trained on such data relies on the intended motif. Although prior work has quest …

Neuro-Symbolic (NeSy) predictors incorporate prior knowledge into the prediction process of neural networks, ensuring that outputs satisfy specified constraints, making them particularly suitable for high-stakes applications where compliance with domain knowledge is essential. A key bottleneck in this paradigm is the a …
