SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR UTILIZING GROUPED PARTIAL DEPENDENCE PLOTS AND GAME-THEORETIC CONCEPTS AND THEIR EXTENSIONS IN THE GENERATION OF ADVERSE ACTION REASON CODES
Last updated:
Abstract:
A framework for interpreting machine learning models is proposed that utilizes interpretability methods to determine the contribution of groups of input variables to the output of the model. Input variables are grouped based on dependencies with other input variables. The groups are identified by processing a training data set with a clustering algorithm. Once the groups of input variables are defined, scores related to each group of input variables for a given instance of the input vector processed by the model are calculated according to one or more algorithms. The algorithms can utilize group Partial Dependence Plot (PDP) values, Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) values, and Banzhaf values, and their extensions among others, and a score for each group can be calculated for a given instance of an input vector per group. These scores can then be sorted, ranked, and then combined into one hybrid ranking.
