Scenario Visualization Toolkit

The purpose of this research software is to provide and interpretation and explanation of complex systems through anaylsis of tabular data in .csv or .tsv format with a graphical user interface (GUI).

This software will provides a complete SHAP interpretation pipeline, including rapid testing of multiple surrogate data models, a lattice plot, and a 3D plot tool.
