What it covers

A transformed data set corresponding to a machine learning classifier's training data set is generated. Each transformed record contains a modified version of a corresponding training record, as well as the prediction made for the training record by the classifier. A set of explanatory rules is minded from the transformed data set, with each rule indicating a relationship between the prediction and one or more features corresponding to the training records. From among the rule set, a particular matching rule is selected to provide an easy-to-understand explanation for a prediction made by the classifier for an observation record which is not part of the training set.
