About Xplainable

What is Xplainable?

Xplainable is a transparent machine learning package that provides real-time explainability without sacrificing performance. It bridges the gap between accuracy and interpretability through novel algorithms designed specifically for complete transparency.

Overview​

Xplainable is a Python package that leverages explainable machine learning for fully transparent machine learning and advanced data optimization in production systems. Unlike traditional black-box models, xplainable provides real-time explainability without needing surrogate models like SHAP or LIME.

Key Features​

🔍 Real-time Explainability

Get instant explanations without fitting surrogate models. Our transparent algorithms provide explanations as part of the prediction process.

⚡ Rapid Refitting

Update model parameters on-the-fly, even for individual features. Fine-tune your models without complete retraining.

🎯 Dual Interface

Use either programmatic Python APIs or interactive Jupyter GUIs. Perfect for both data scientists and business users.

☁️ Cloud Integration

Deploy models to production in seconds with Xplainable Cloud. Full collaboration and model management features.

Quick Example​

import xplainable as xp
from xplainable.core.models import XClassifier

# Load data
data = xp.load_dataset('titanic')
X, y = data.drop('Survived', axis=1), data['Survived']

# Train transparent model
model = XClassifier()
model.fit(X, y)

# Get real-time explanations
model.explain()  # No surrogate models needed!
