Generate Neighborhood

Synopsis​

This operator creates the neighbourhood as defined in LIME and returns a weighted example set for each example.

Description​

In the LIME algorithm we create an artificial set of data points and weight them according to the distance to the given example. This operator allows you to create those weighted neighboorhoods around a given data point.

Input​

example set​

The data you want to generate neighborhoods for.

Output​

collection of example sets​

A collection (list) of data sets containing the neighborhood for each data point.

original​

The original data set.

Parameters​

Sample size​

Most algorithm use some sample size generation internally. For LIME and Explain Predictions this is the number of random sample drawn. In case of Shapely and kernelSHAP this is the number of permutations.

Redraw local samples​

Only available for LIME. If checked the operator will draw new random samples in each iteration. If deactivated a set of examples is generated once and used for the interpretation of each example.
