Using Visual Analytics to Interpret Predictive Machine Learning Models

Machine Learning 2016-06-22 v2 Machine Learning

Abstract

It is commonly believed that increasing the interpretability of a machine learning model may decrease its predictive power. However, inspecting input-output relationships of those models using visual analytics, while treating them as black-box, can help to understand the reasoning behind outcomes without sacrificing predictive quality. We identify a space of possible solutions and provide two examples of where such techniques have been successfully used in practice.
