Two free-function helpers used inside OddSHAP.approximate: - lgboost_to_fourier(model_dict): converts a fitted LightGBM model to its aggregated Fourier representation via per-tree DFS recursion (Gorji et al., arXiv:2410.06300). - top_k_interactions(coeffs, k, odd=True): selects the top-k interactions by |coefficient|, optionally restricted to odd cardinality (per the OddSHAP Theorem 3.2 restriction). Mirrors the interface that the OddSHAP paper code imports as `from oddshap.proxyspex import lgboost_to_fourier, top_k_interactions`. 14 unit tests cover: top-k selection logic (odd filter, magnitude sort, k-limit, edge cases); single-leaf / one-split / two-level-split tree recursions with hand-computed expected coefficients; end-to-end on fitted LightGBM (constant, linear, XOR targets); odd singletons recovery via the full pipeline.
Replaces Sara's TODO stub with a ProxySPEX-style screening pass:
1. lgboost_to_fourier(surrogate.booster_.dump_model())
converts the fitted LightGBM surrogate to its sparse Fourier
representation (DFS recursion, one entry per encountered
interaction).
2. top_k_interactions(coeffs, k=n_candidate_interactions, odd=False)
keeps the top-k entries by |coefficient|. Pre-filtered to
cardinality >= 3 odd interactions so the budget is not spent on
singletons (those are added unconditionally by _build_support).
Smoke test on SOUM(n in {6, 8, 10}) at full budget reaches the
regression branch and returns sensible odd higher-order interactions
(e.g. (1, 4, 5), (0, 3, 6), ...). All 14 existing adapter unit tests
still pass.
50 tests covering OddSHAP's algorithmic guarantees:
* Init contract — defaults, custom kwargs, attribute exposure
* Coalition-size sampling weights — shape, sum=1, zero boundaries,
symmetry, paper formula 1/((n-1)*C(n-2,k-1))
* approximate() return-value contract — InteractionValues fields,
baseline equals v(empty), estimation_budget recorded, estimated flag
* Constraint-system identities (exact, enforced by construction):
- efficiency axiom: sum_i phi_i = v(N) - v(empty)
- baseline: phi_empty = v(empty)
* Determinism — same seed -> bit-identical output; sub-budget seeds differ
* Branch routing via runtime_last_approximate_run keys
* ProxySPEX adapter integration — output is higher-order odd only,
respects k limit, handles zero budget and missing surrogate
* _build_support invariants — empty + all singletons always present,
even/singleton inputs dropped, unsorted tuples normalized
* Game-property tests on DummyGame — symmetry / efficiency on a
closed-form game
* Convergence vs ExactComputer — xfail(strict=False) since OddSHAP
is a sparse-recovery method (n=6 currently xpasses)
* Efficiency persists at sub-budget — by construction
Two xfails documented inline:
- low-budget fallback path raises IndexError in shapiq.tree.explainer
on constant LightGBM surrogates (tracked separately)
- convergence on dense SOUM at full budget for n=8 (sparse-recovery
method; tightens once SG-41 paired-sampling lands)
Results: 47 passed, 2 xfailed, 1 xpassed (3.3 s).
… changes
After Sara registered OddSHAP in shapiq.approximator.regression.__init__,
the top-level import of TreeExplainer in oddshap.py triggers a circular
import (regression -> oddshap -> tree.explainer -> explainer -> tree).
Moved that import inside _approximate_via_fallback where it is actually
used.
Test alignment with Sara's API changes:
* odd_only=False is now explicitly rejected -- split that into
test_init_rejects_odd_only_false and dropped the kwarg from
test_init_custom_kwargs.
* _select_odd_interactions now takes a budget keyword and bypasses
the top-k truncation when budget >= 2**n. Updated the 4 existing
call sites to pass budget=, and added
test_select_odd_interactions_full_budget_returns_all_higher_order_odd
to document the new full-budget short-circuit.
Result: 63 passed, 2 xfailed, 1 xpassed (no regressions; same 2 xfails
as before -- TreeExplainer fallback crash and n=8 dense SOUM
convergence).
Cast the parity matrix to float before applying the Fourier sign transform. This prevents uint8 underflow where -1 became 255 and restores full-budget consistency against ExactComputer. Also removes obsolete xfail markers for the fallback and full-budget convergence tests.
Correct the OddSHAP candidate interaction budget to follow the paper’s ceil(m / eta) rule and add coverage for the regression threshold boundary. Clean up OddSHAP implementation style and integration details, including stale comments, docstrings, unused compatibility kwargs, optional LightGBM import handling, and public approximator export ordering.
…r into oddshap.py, add method to seperate sampling weights from kernel weights
Sara's latest commits on oddshap_approximator implement Max's feedback:
- removes runtime_last_approximate_run measurement
- replaces the low-budget fallback with an explicit ValueError
- default interaction_detection switches from ProxySPEX to ProxySHAP
- sampling weights are now uniform over non-boundary sizes
(paper's 1/((n-1)C(n-2,k-1)) formula moved to the new
_init_regression_kernel_weights_static and is used as the LSQ
kernel weight, equivalent to KernelSHAP weights up to a global scale)
Test updates:
* test_init_defaults: drop runtime_last_approximate_run assertion;
expect interaction_detection == 'ProxySHAP'.
* test_sampling_weights_match_paper_formula renamed into
test_sampling_weights_uniform_over_non_boundary_sizes (new
behaviour) plus a separate
test_regression_kernel_weights_match_paper_formula that pins the
paper formula on the LSQ kernel where it actually lives.
* test_high_budget_takes_regression_path / test_low_budget_takes_fallback_path
removed (runtime tracking gone, fallback path gone) and replaced by
test_low_budget_raises_value_error.
* Sara's added test_boundary_budget_takes_regression_path_... was
still asserting on the deleted runtime dict — kept the n_candidate
assertion, dropped the runtime check.
Result: 59 passed, 0 failed, 0 xfailed in 1.2 s. All adapter tests (14)
still pass. The convergence test that was previously xfailed on n=8
now passes cleanly thanks to Sara's Fourier sign fix.

Hi @mmschlk, this PR is ready for review now. I added the approximator and updated the implementation based on the feedback. Thanks |

Motivation and Context
This PR adds a new OddSHAP approximator for estimating first-order Shapley values.
OddSHAP is based on the method by Fumagalli et al. (2026). The main idea is to estimate Shapley values through odd Fourier terms.
Implemented
Notes
This implementation doesn't add a separate ProxySPEX-style adapter. Instead, it reuses the existing tree interaction code through InterventionalTreeExplainer.
The current implementation only supports odd_only=True, because the final Shapley value computation is based on odd-cardinality Fourier terms.
