PPtreeregViz - Projection Pursuit Regression Tree Visualization
It was developed as a tool for exploring 'PPTreereg'
(Projection Pursuit TREE of REGression). It uses various
projection pursuit indexes and 'XAI' (eXplainable Artificial
Intelligence) methods to help understand the model by finding
connections between the input variables and prediction values
of the model. The 'KernelSHAP' (Aas, Jullum and Løland (2019)
<arXiv:1903.10464>) algorithm was modified to fit ‘PPTreereg’,
and some codes were modified from the 'shapr' package
(Sellereite, Nikolai, and Martin Jullum (2020)
<doi:10.21105/joss.02027>). The implemented methods help to
explore the model at the single instance level as well as at
the whole dataset level. Users can compare with other machine
learning models by applying it to the 'DALEX' package of 'R'.
