Compute LIME

This Component is able to create a Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanation (LIME) to explain the predictions of any machine learning model in KNIME.

You have to use this component together with LIME Loop Start node from the KNIME Machine Learning Interpretability Extension.
Please install KNIME H2O Machine Learning Integration.

The workflow within the Component will go through the following steps:
1. Using LASSO to select relevant features.
2. Training a local surrogate Generalized Linear Model (GLM) using Weighted Least Squares (WLS).
3. Output the coefficients of the local model able to explain the original instance prediction.

Options

Prediction Column
Select which prediction column you want to explain with LIME.
Explanation Size
The maximum number of features that are allowed to participate in a single explanation (features for which the contribution is non-zero). %%00010%%00010It is suggested to keep this number small as explanations made of many features are not easy to understand. Usually a number between 5 and 10 is recommended.

Input Ports

Icon
A table with a Double Type prediction column of the sampled instances. Such prediction column can be created scoring the LIME Loop Start top ouput table with the predictor node of your model. If your model is solving a classification task make sure to output a pobability column of Double Type.
Icon
This table contains the data used to learn a local surrogate model including a weight column and it is produced by Loop Start node bottom port.

Output Ports

Icon
A table containing the explanation. Each column with a feature column name holds the single value of the coefficient of the trained local surrogate linear model. Additionally the columns "Target", "Intercept" and "RMSE" are added. "Target" describes which prediction column of the orginal model is explained. "Intercept" shows the value of the intecept of the trained linear model. "RMSE" refers to the precision of the explanation. The lower, the better as it is computed using the weighted root mean squared error comparing the original predictions and the predictions created by the linear surrogate model.
