Hands-On Explainable AI (XAI) with Python

By: Denis Rothman

Overview of this book

Effectively translating AI insights to business stakeholders requires careful planning, design, and visualization choices. Describing the problem, the model, and the relationships among variables and their findings are often subtle, surprising, and technically complex. Hands-On Explainable AI (XAI) with Python will see you work with specific hands-on machine learning Python projects that are strategically arranged to enhance your grasp on AI results analysis. You will be building models, interpreting results with visualizations, and integrating XAI reporting tools and different applications. You will build XAI solutions in Python, TensorFlow 2, Google Cloud’s XAI platform, Google Colaboratory, and other frameworks to open up the black box of machine learning models. The book will introduce you to several open-source XAI tools for Python that can be used throughout the machine learning project life cycle. You will learn how to explore machine learning model results, review key influencing variables and variable relationships, detect and handle bias and ethics issues, and integrate predictions using Python along with supporting the visualization of machine learning models into user explainable interfaces. By the end of this AI book, you will possess an in-depth understanding of the core concepts of XAI.

White Box XAI for AI Bias and Ethics

AI provides complex algorithms that can replace or emulate human intelligence. We tend to think that AI will spread unchecked by regulations. Without AI, corporate giants cannot process the huge amounts of data they face. In turn, ML algorithms require massive amounts of public and private data for training purposes to guarantee reliable results.

However, from a legal standpoint, AI remains a form of automatic processing of data. As such, just like any other method that processes data automatically, AI must follow the rules established by the international community, which compel AI designers to explain how decisions are reached. Explainable AI (XAI) has become a legal obligation.

The legal problem of AI worsens once we realize that for an algorithm to work, it requires data, that is, huge volumes of data. Collecting data requires access to networks, emails, text messages, social networks, hard disks, and more. By its very nature...
