# iml

 `iml ` is an R package that interprets the behavior and explains predictions of machine learning models. 

 It implements model-agnostic interpretability methods - meaning they can be used with any machine learning model.

## Features

- Feature importance

- Partial dependence plots

- Individual conditional expectation plots (ICE)

- Accumulated local effects

- Tree surrogate

- LocalModel: Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations

- Shapley value for explaining single predictions

Read more about the methods in the [Interpretable Machine Learning](https://christophm.github.io/interpretable-ml-book/agnostic.html) book.

## Tutorial

Start an interactive notebook tutorial by clicking on this badge [![Binder](http://mybinder.org/badge.svg)](http://beta.mybinder.org/v2/gh/christophM/iml/master?filepath=./notebooks/tutorial-intro.ipynb)

```{r global_options, include=FALSE}

library(knitr)

opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE, warning = FALSE, message = FALSE,

  fig.path = "man/figures/README-")

set.seed(42)

```

## Installation

The package can be installed directly from CRAN and the development version from GitHub:

```{r, results = "hide", eval = FALSE}

# Stable version

install.packages("iml")

# Development version

remotes::install_github("christophM/iml")

```

## News

Changes of the packages can be accessed in the [NEWS file](https://christophm.github.io/iml/news/index.html).

## Quickstart

First we train a Random Forest to predict the Boston median housing value.

How does `lstat` influence the prediction individually and on average? (Accumulated local effects)

```{r}

library("iml")

library("randomForest")

data("Boston", package = "MASS")

rf = randomForest(medv ~ ., data = Boston, ntree = 50)

X = Boston[which(names(Boston) != "medv")]

model = Predictor$new(rf, data = X, y = Boston$medv)

effect = FeatureEffects$new(model)

effect$plot(features = c("lstat", "age", "rm"))

```
