Parallel Coordinates for Discovery of Interpretable Machine Learning Models
This work uses visual knowledge discovery in parallel coordinates to advance methods of interpretable machine learning. The graphic data representation in parallel coordinates made the concepts of hypercubes and hyperblocks (HBs) simple to understand for end users. It is suggested to use mixed and pure hyperblocks in the proposed data classifier algorithm Hyper. It is shown that Hyper models generalize decision trees. The algorithm is presented in several settings and options to discover interactively or automatically overlapping or non-overlapping hyperblocks. Additionally, the use of hyperblocks in conjunction with language descriptions of visual patterns is demonstrated. The benchmark data from the UCI ML repository were used to evaluate the Hyper algorithm. It enabled the discovery of mixed and pure HBs evaluated using 10-fold cross validation. Connections among hyperblocks, dimension reduction and visualization have been established. The capability of end users to find and observe hyperblocks, as well as the ability of side-by-side visualizations to make patterns evident, are among major advantages ofhyperblock technology and the Hyper algorithm. A new method to visualize incomplete n-D data with missing values is proposed, while the traditional parallel coordinates do not support it. The ability of HBs to better prevent both overgeneralization and overfitting of data over decision trees is demonstrated as another benefit of the hyperblocks. The features of VisCanvas 2.0 software tool that implements Hyper technology are presented.
