Applying the right explanation

Depending on the needs and context:

  • Model-agnostic explanation: multiple models, simplicity, and flexibility
  • Model-specific explanation: depth and detail for particular model
  • Local explanation: explain individual decision, especially in critical context
  • Global explanation: understanding of overall behavior of model
