Get Python SHAP Explainer in Ubuntu

pip install shap

is what you need.

It has dependencies on:
  • numba
  • scikit-learn
Numba is a very interesting tool. It is an open source JIT compiler that translates a subset of Python and NumPy code into fast machine code. It uses the LLVM compiler library.

scikit-learn is the de facto Python machine learning kit. Everyone knows scikit-learn! But knowing it well - ah that's the rub!

You may see llvmlite downloaded too as part of shap, to support Numba.
