Interpretable NLI achieved via graph-based atomic propositions

Researchers have developed a novel approach to Natural Language Inference (NLI) that prioritizes interpretability by using graph-based representations derived from atomic propositions. This method decomposes sentences into ConceptNet triples, forming three graphs per pair, which are then processed by a fine-tuned language model. While this graph-based pipeline achieves competitive accuracy on the SNLI dataset, it shows a notable performance gap on the ANLI dataset, which the authors attribute to representational limitations rather than data constraints. Combining both graph and text modalities proved beneficial, yielding improved accuracy on SNLI. AI

IMPACT Introduces a novel, interpretable approach to NLI that could influence future model development and evaluation.

    Can We Do Interpretable NLI with Graphs Based on Atomic Propositions?

    arXiv:2609.16814v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Large Language Model (LLM)-based Natural Language Inference (NLI) systems achieve high accuracy, their decision-making processes lack auditable structures. This paper explores whether NLI can be performed using only interpreta…
