predict function

Predictions for the Explainer

This is a generic predict() function works for explainer objects.

## S3 method for class 'explainer'
predict(object, newdata, ...)

model_prediction(explainer, new_data, ...)

Arguments

• object: a model to be explained, object of the class explainer
• newdata: data.frame or matrix - observations for prediction
• ...: other parameters that will be passed to the predict function
• explainer: a model to be explained, object of the class explainer
• new_data: data.frame or matrix - observations for prediction

Returns

An numeric matrix of predictions

Examples

HR_glm_model <- glm(status == "fired"~., data = HR, family = "binomial")
explainer_glm <- explain(HR_glm_model, data = HR)
predict(explainer_glm, HR[1:3,])

 
library("ranger")
HR_ranger_model <- ranger(status~., data = HR, num.trees = 50, probability = TRUE)
explainer_ranger  <- explain(HR_ranger_model, data = HR)
predict(explainer_ranger, HR[1:3,])

model_prediction(explainer_ranger, HR[1:3,])
