Reply to comment by Hydreigon92 in [D] Alternatives to the shap explainability package by deepestdescent

Thank you for that. Does it use the shap library under the hood, or does it have its own implementation for computing Shapley values? If it is using the shap, then I wouldn’t really call this an alternative as it is using the same unmaintained backend.

Yep so InterpretML does use the unmaintained shap library unfortunately. Looks like the author of shap works for Microsoft though so maybe he also works on InterpretML? I just don’t understand why shap isn’t being actively maintained since so many projects rely on it.

You might actually be the best candidate to begin to maintain shap.
