What problem does it solve?
SHAP helps you understand and validate why a machine learning model produced a specific prediction or ranking, turning opaque model outputs into feature-level explanations you can trust and act on.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Compute SHAP values for many model types: Choose fast explainers for tree and linear models, use neural explainers for deep learning, or fall back to model-agnostic explainers for black boxes.
- Generate interpretability visualizations: Produce global and local plots such as beeswarm, bar, waterfall, scatter (dependence), heatmap, force, and more.
- Debug and improve models: Diagnose unexpected feature importance (including potential leakage), explore feature interactions, and support fairness/bias analysis across cohorts.
- Production-ready explanation workflows: Save and reuse explainers, batch computations, and integrate explanation outputs into reporting or APIs.
Quick Start
Use the shap skill to explain model predictions for your trained dataset by asking: “Compute SHAP values for my model and generate a beeswarm plot plus a waterfall plot for the first test row.”
