Project description
A generic explainability architecture for explaining text machine learning models.
Marcel Robeer, 2021
Installation
See installation.md for an extended installation guide.
Method | Instructions |
---|---|
pip |
Install from PyPI via pip3 install text_explainability . |
Local | Clone this repository and install via pip3 install -e . or locally run python3 setup.py install . |
Example usage
See example_usage.md to see an example of how the package can be used, or run the lines in example_usage.py
to do explore it interactively.
Explanation methods included
text_explainability
includes methods for model-agnostic local explanation and global explanation. Each of these methods can be fully customized to fit the explainees' needs.
Type | Explanation method | Description | Paper/link |
---|---|---|---|
Local explanation | LIME |
Calculate feature attribution with Local Intepretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (LIME). | [Ribeiro2016], interpretable-ml/lime |
KernelSHAP |
Calculate feature attribution with Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP). | [Lundberg2017], interpretable-ml/shap | |
LocalTree |
Fit a local decision tree around a single decision. | [Guidotti2018] | |
LocalRules |
Fit a local sparse set of label-specific rules using SkopeRules . |
github/skope-rules | |
FoilTree |
Fit a local contrastive/counterfactual decision tree around a single decision. | [Robeer2018] | |
Global explanation | TokenFrequency |
Show the top-k number of tokens for each ground-truth or predicted label. | |
TokenInformation |
Show the top-k token mutual information for a dataset or model. | wikipedia/mutual_information | |
KMedoids |
Embed instances and find top-n prototypes (can also be performed for each label using LabelwiseKMedoids ). |
interpretable-ml/prototypes | |
MMDCritic |
Embed instances and find top-n prototypes and top-n criticisms (can also be performed for each label using LabelwiseMMDCritic ). |

Todo
Tasks yet to be done:
- Implement local post-hoc explanations:
- Implement Anchors
- Implement global post-hoc explanations:
- Representative subset
- Add support for regression models
- More complex data augmentation
- Top-k replacement (e.g. according to LM / WordNet)
- Tokens to exclude from being changed
- Bag-of-words style replacements
- Add rule-based return type
- Write more tests
