v0.5.7

v0.5.7 (2021-03-31)

Full Changelog

Changed

• Support for KernelShap and TreeShap now requires installing the shap dependency explicitly after installing alibi. This can be achieved by running pip install alibi && pip install alibi[shap]. The reason for this is that the build process for the upstream shap package is not well configured resulting in broken installations as detailed in #376 and shap/shap#1802. We expect this to be a temporary change until changes are made upstream.

Added

• A reset_predictor method for black-box explainers. The intended use case for this is for deploying an already configured explainer to work with a remote predictor endpoint instead of the local predictor used in development.
• alibi.datasets.load_cats function which loads a small sample of cat images shipped with the library to be used in examples.

Fixed

• Deprecated the alibi.datasets.fetch_imagenet function as the Imagenet API is no longer available.
• IntegratedGradients now works with subclassed TensorFlow models.
• Removed support for calculating attributions wrt multiple layers in IntegratedGradients as this was not working properly and is difficult to do in the general case.

Development

• Fixed an issue with AnchorTabular tests not being picked up due to a name change of test data fixtures.
