FAQPage Schema
How do I explain machine learning predictions using Shapley values?

Model explainability using Shapley values provides both global and local interpretability, calculating feature attribution to show exactly how specific features influence individual predictions and overall model behavior.

Can I use Shapley values with XGBoost, TensorFlow, and PyTorch models?

Yes, Shapley value model explainability supports various model types including tree-based models like XGBoost, deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch, and linear models for feature importance attribution.

What's the best way to visualize feature importance for a trained scikit-learn model?

The best way to visualize feature importance is by generating interpretability plots such as waterfall, beeswarm, and bar plots, which provide clear insights into how features contribute to your scikit-learn model predictions.

How do I debug model fairness and validate feature attribution for loan approvals?

Debug model fairness and validate feature attribution by analyzing Shapley values to understand why a specific applicant was denied, highlighting key factors like credit score and income that influenced the machine learning decision.

Do I need the shap library to generate global interpretability plots for machine learning?

Yes, you need the shap library to compute Shapley values and generate both global and local interpretability plots for visualizing feature importance and explaining machine learning model predictions.
