Intel® Explainable AI Tools

This repository provides tools for data scientists and MLOps engineers that have requirements specific to AI model interpretability.

Overview

The Intel Explainable AI Tools are designed to help users detect and mitigate against issues of fairness and interpretability, while running best on Intel hardware. There are two Python* components in the repository:

  • Model Card Generator
    • Creates interactive HTML reports containing model performance and fairness metrics
  • Explainer
    • Runs post-hoc model distillation and visualization methods to examine predictive behavior for both TensorFlow* and PyTorch* models via a simple Python API including the following modules:
      • Attributions: Visualize negative and positive attributions of tabular features, pixels, and word tokens for predictions
      • CAM (Class Activation Mapping): Create heatmaps for CNN image classifications using gradient-weight class activation CAM mapping
      • Metrics: Gain insight into models with the measurements and visualizations needed during the machine learning workflow

Get Started

Requirements

  • Linux system or WSL2 on Windows (validated on Ubuntu* 20.04/22.04 LTS)
  • Python 3.9, 3.10
  • Install required OS packages with apt-get install build-essential python3-dev
  • git (only required for the "Developer Installation")
  • Poetry

Developer Installation with Poetry

Use these instructions to install the Intel AI Safety python library with a clone of the GitHub repository. This can be done instead of the basic pip install, if you plan on making code changes.

  1. Clone this repo and navigate to the repo directory.

  2. Allow poetry to create virtual envionment contained in .venv directory of current directory.

    poetry lock

    In addtion, you can explicitly tell poetry which python instance to use

    poetry env use /full/path/to/python
  3. Choose the intel_ai_safety subpackages and plugins that you wish to install.

    a. Install intel_ai_safety with all of its subpackages (e.g. explainer and model_card_gen) and plugins

    poetry install --extras all

    b. Install intel_ai_safety with just explainer

    poetry install --extras explainer

    c. Install intel_ai_safety with just model_card_gen

    poetry install --extras model-card

    d. Install intel_ai_safety with explainer and all of its plugins

    poetry install --extras explainer-all

    e. Install intel_ai_safety with explainer and just its pytorch implementations

    poetry install --extras explainer-pytorch

    f. Install intel_ai_safety with explainer and just its tensroflow implementations

    poetry install --extras explainer-tensorflow
  4. Activate the environment:

    source .venv/bin/activate

Install to existing enviornment with Poetry

Create and activate a Python3 virtual environment

We encourage you to use a python virtual environment (virtualenv or conda) for consistent package management. There are two ways to do this:

  1. Choose a virtual enviornment to use: a. Using virtualenv:

    python3 -m virtualenv xai_env
    source xai_env/bin/activate

    b. Or conda:

    conda create --name xai_env python=3.9
    conda activate xai_env
  2. Install to current enviornment

    poetry config virtualenvs.create false && poetry install --extras all

Additional Feature-Specific Steps

Notebooks may require additional dependencies listed in their associated documentation.

Verify Installation

Verify that your installation was successful by using the following commands, which display the Explainer and Model Card Generator versions:

python -c "from intel_ai_safety.explainer import version; print(version.__version__)"
python -c "from intel_ai_safety.model_card_gen import version; print(version.__version__)"

Running Notebooks

The following links have Jupyter* notebooks showing how to use the Explainer and Model Card Generator APIs in various ML domains and use cases:
