AI Transparency and Explainability: Building Trust in Artificial Intelligence
As artificial intelligence systems become increasingly complex and influential, the need for transparency and explainability has never been more critical. This comprehensive guide explores the principles, techniques, and practical applications of explainable AI (XAI) in building trustworthy systems.
LIME (Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations): Explaining individual predictions
SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations): Fairly distributing prediction contributions
Integrated Gradients: Attributing predictions to input features
shap_values = explainer.shap_values(X_test)
shap.summary_plot(shap_values, X_test)
# Local explanation for a single prediction
