Tree Organigram

Effective explainability in machine learning models requires both global and local methods. Global methods provide comprehensive insights into the entire model, aiding in design and assurance by predicting future outcomes and explaining the overall logic.

Relate parameters to human-understandable concepts

Relate inputs to outputs

Explainability

”Global methods generate evidence that apply to a whole model, and

support design and assurance activities by allowing reasoning about all pos-

sible future out-comes for the model. Local methods generate explanations

for an individual decision, and may be used to analyse why a particular

problem occurred, and to improve the model so future events of this type

are avoided.” R. Ashmore, R. Calinescu, and C. Paterson, “Assuring the machine learning lifecycle

Global

Generate explanations about the whole logic of the model

Make predictions about future outputs

Inform design

Local

Can individual decisions be explained?

Improve/correct model

Analyse why a particular problem occurred

Legal Needs
Explain Mistakes/accidents
Users have a "right to explanation"
