Tree Ensemble Explainability through the Hoeffding Functional Decomposition and TreeHFD Algorithm
Clément Bénard
Tree ensembles have demonstrated state-of-the-art predictive performance across a wide range of problems involving tabular data. Nevertheless, the black-box nature of tree ensemble…
SHAFF: Fast and consistent SHApley eFfect estimates via random Forests
Clément Bénard, Gérard Biau, Sébastien da Veiga +1
Interpretability of learning algorithms is crucial for applications involving critical decisions, and variable importance is one of the main interpretation tools. Shapley effects a…
MDA for random forests: inconsistency, and a practical solution via the Sobol-MDA
Clément Bénard, Sébastien da Veiga, Erwan Scornet
Variable importance measures are the main tools to analyze the black-box mechanisms of random forests. Although the mean decrease accuracy (MDA) is widely accepted as the most effi…
Interpretable Random Forests via Rule Extraction
Clément Bénard, Gérard Biau, Sébastien da Veiga +1
We introduce SIRUS (Stable and Interpretable RUle Set) for regression, a stable rule learning algorithm which takes the form of a short and simple list of rules. State-of-the-art l…
