modelStudio (development)

• ...

modelStudio 3.1.2

• added new parameter to modelStudio(): open_plots = c("fi"), which is a vector listing plots to be initially opened (and on which positions) (#112)
• fixed future warning with DALEX::loss_default() since DALEX >=2.5.0

modelStudio 3.1.0

• changed y-axis variable labels in SV to the same as in BD
• added new parameter to modelStudio(): max_features_fi = max_features, which allows displaying a distinctive number of features in FI plot (other than in BD and SV)
• added new options to ms_options(): **_axis_title, which allow changing plot-specific axis title (default varies)

modelStudio 3.0.0

• BREAKING CHANGES:
  • this version requires R >=3.6, DALEX >=2.2.1, ingredients >=2.2.0 and iBreakDown >=2.0.1
  • the deprecated alias modelStudioOptions() is removed from this version of the package; after being deprecated for over a year since v1.1.0. Use the recommended ms_options() instead.
  • added new parameter to modelStudio(): N_sv = 3*N, which by default decreases the number of observations used for the calculation of Shapley Values (rows in data)
  • margin_left = NULL by default and it is adjusted based on the length of variable names
  • the first plot opened in the dashboard is now FI instead of BD by default
• added the verbose parameter to modelStudio() as an alias to show_info (#101)
• added new ms_merge_observations() function that merges local explanation of observations from multiple modelStudio objects (#102)

modelStudio 2.1.2

• fixed an error in modelStudio() when data had only one variable (#99)

modelStudio 2.1.1

• fix CRAN checks

modelStudio 2.1.0

• DEFAULTS CHANGES: if new_observation = NULL then choose new_observation_n = 3 observations, evenly spread by the order of y_hat. This shall always include the observations, which ids are which.min(y_hat) and which.max(y_hat). Additionally, improve the observation dropdown text in dashboard. (#94)
• updated the progress printing
• this version requires DALEX v2.0.1
• added new options to ms_options: ms_subtitle, ms_margin_top and ms_margin_bottom
• added new parameters to modelStudio(): N_fi = 10*N and B_fi = B
• added new license parameter to modelStudio() which allows to specify the connection for readLines() (e.g. 'LICENSE') which will add file contents into the HTML output as a comment

modelStudio 2.0.0

• this version requires DALEX v2.0, ingredients v2.0 and iBreakDown v1.3.1
• The dashboard gathers useful, but not sensitive, information about how it is being used (e.g. computation length, package version, dashboard dimensions). This is for the development purposes only and can be blocked by setting telemetry to FALSE.
• add support for modelStudio in Shiny (#77) using new widget_id argument
• modelStudio now works with NA in data (#71)
• CP, PD and AD plots are now calculated with variable_splits_type='uniform' and CP plots are now calculated with variable_splits_with_obs=TRUE (#74)
• By default the loss_function in FI is now different for each explainer$model_info$type (#73)
• fixed a bug where passing additional parameters in ... would cause an error
• added a max_vars alias for the max_features parameter
• added median line to the boxplots in FI and SV plots, added boxplots to TV categorical plots (regression)
• TV plot uses boxplots and barplot when the target y has only two unique values (classification) (#76)
• added more checks for input
• added the Residuals vs Feature plot (RV) (#84)
• added model performance measures to the footnote #(85)

• feature_importance is now calculated on 10*N sampled rows from the data
• use ranger instead of randomForest everywhere
