Explaining Link Predictions in Knowledge Graph Embedding Models with Influential Examples

Abstract

We study the problem of explaining link predictions in the Knowledge Graph Embedding (KGE) models. We propose an example-based approach that exploits the latent space representation of nodes and edges in a knowledge graph to explain predictions. We evaluated the importance of identified triples by observing progressing degradation of model performance upon influential triples removal. Our experiments demonstrate that this approach to generate explanations outperforms baselines on KGE models for two publicly available datasets.
