Infos

A deep and detailed dive into the key aspects and challenges of machine learning interpretability, complete with the know-how on how to overcome and leverage them to build fairer, safer, and more reliable modelsKey FeaturesLearn how to extract easy-to-understand insights from any machine learning modelBecome well-versed with interpretability techniques to build fairer, safer, and more reliable modelsMitigate risks in AI systems before they have broader implications by learning how to debug black-box modelsBook DescriptionDo you want to gain a deeper understanding of your models and better mitigate poor prediction risks associated with machine learning interpretation? If so, then Interpretable Machine Learning with Python deserves a place on your bookshelf. We ll be starting off with the fundamentals of interpretability, its relevance in business, and exploring its key aspects and challenges. As you progress through the chapters, you'll then focus on how white-box models work, compare them to black-box and glass-box models, and examine their trade-off. You ll also get you up to speed with a vast array of interpretation methods, also known as Explainable AI (XAI) methods, and how to apply them to different use cases, be it for classification or regression, for tabular, time-series, image or text. In addition to the step-by-step code, this book will also help you interpret model outcomes using examples. You ll get hands-on with tuning models and training data for interpretability by reducing complexity, mitigating bias, placing guardrails, and enhancing reliability. The methods you ll explore here range from state-of-the-art feature selection and dataset debiasing methods to monotonic constraints and adversarial retraining. By the end of this book, you'll be able to understand ML models better and enhance them through interpretability tuning. What you will learnRecognize the importance of interpretability in businessStudy models that are intrinsically interpretable such as linear models, decision trees, and Naive BayesBecome well-versed in interpreting models with model-agnostic methodsVisualize how an image classifier works and what it learnsUnderstand how to mitigate the influence of bias in datasetsDiscover how to make models more reliable with adversarial robustnessUse monotonic constraints to make fairer and safer modelsWho this book is forThis book is primarily written for data scientists, machine learning developers, and data stewards who find themselves under increasing pressures to explain the workings of AI systems, their impacts on decision making, and how they identify and manage bias. It s also a useful resource for self-taught ML enthusiasts and beginners who want to go deeper into the subject matter, though a solid grasp on the Python programming language and ML fundamentals is needed to follow along.]]>
