Faithful, Sufficient and Understandable: Rethinking Graph Counterfactual Explanations via Discrete Diffusion Inversion

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) achieve strong predictive performance on graph-structured data across domains such as chemistry, biology, and network analysis, yet they provide no intrinsic explanation of their predictions. This limits their adoption in high-stakes and safety-critical settings. Counterfactual explanations address this by revealing the minimal structural modifications that would change a model's prediction. On graphs, however, such a modification is hard to produce.
