Model-Interpretability
Model interpretability refers to the degree to which a human can understand the reasons behind a model’s decisions or predictions. It is crucial in machine learning, as it allows users to trust and validate the outcomes generated by models. High interpretability means that the relationships between input features and predictions are clear and comprehensible. This concept is essential for ensuring accountability, especially in high-stakes applications like healthcare and finance, where understanding the rationale behind decisions can significantly impact lives. Various models, such as linear regression and decision trees, are inherently more interpretable than complex models like deep neural networks.
Interpretable Models
The easiest way to achieve interpretability is to use only a subset of algorithms that create interpretable models. Linear regression, logistic regression and the decision tree are commonly used inter...

Unavoidability of Model Interpretability
High score model doesn’t mean that it is interpretable, and worse than that, model results could be misleading. Never trust a model that is telling 99% accuracy at the first shot. Tools like LIME…

How to Increase the Interpretability of Your Predictive Model
Accuracy and interpretability are said to be diametrically different. Complex models tend to achieve the highest accuracies, while simpler models tend to be more interpretable. But what if we want to…...
