Similarly, how can we identify anomalies in time series data and explain why they are suspicious? Although recent machine learning models with improved performance are being developed, they are often black-box methods that are difficult to interpret. This leads us to explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), which offers valuable insights through its explanations. In this thesis proposal, we introduce carefully designed explainable methods tailored for graph and time series data, with diverse applications. Each method we proposed is either inherently explainable, or provides explanations for the data or decisions it makes.
