[Re] Parameterized Explainer for Graph Neural Network

Lars Holdijk, Maarten Boon, Stijn Henckens, Lysander de Jong

Abstract

In this work we perform a replication study of the paper Parameterized Explainer for Graph Neural Network. The replication experiment focuses on three main claims: (1) Is it possible to reimplement the proposed method in a different framework? (2) Do the main claims with respect to the GNNExplainer hold? (3) Is the used evaluation method a valid method for explaining the classification decision by Graph Neural Networks?
