When Large Language Models Know the Table: A Framework for Assessing Data Contamination in Tabular Datasets

Matteo Silvestri, Fabiano Veglianti, Flavio Giorgi +2

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly exposed to data contamination, i.e., performance gains driven by prior exposure of test datasets rather than generalization. However,…

Countering Overfitting with Counterfactual Examples

Flavio Giorgi, Fabiano Veglianti, Fabrizio Silvestri +1

Overfitting is a well-known issue in machine learning that occurs when a model struggles to generalize its predictions to new, unseen data beyond the scope of its training set. Tra…

COMBINEX: A Unified Counterfactual Explainer for Graph Neural Networks via Node Feature and Structural Perturbations

Flavio Giorgi, Fabrizio Silvestri, Gabriele Tolomei

Counterfactual explanations have emerged as a powerful tool to unveil the opaque decision-making processes of graph neural networks (GNNs). However, existing techniques primarily f…
