TN-SHAP-G: Graph-Structured Tensor Network Surrogates for Shapley Values and Interactions
Shapley values are a widely used tool for attributing importance and interactions among input variables in black-box models, but their computation involves a function defined over an exponentially large space of subsets. We propose TN-SHAP-G, a framework that exploits structure in graph-structured inputs to compute Shapley values and higher-order interaction indices efficiently. Given a predictor and a fixed masking scheme, TN-SHAP-G learns a compact, graph-aligned multilinear surrogate that approximates the masked-input behavior, represented as a tensor network whose topology mirrors the input graph. Once trained from a small number of oracle queries, the surrogate enables deterministic ...
