gbt-HIPS: Explaining the Classifications of Gradient Boosted Tree Ensembles

This research presents <i>Gradient Boosted Tree High Importance Path Snippets</i> (gbt-HIPS), a novel, heuristic method for explaining gradient boosted tree (GBT) classification models by extracting a single classification rule (CR) from the ensemble of decision trees that make up the GB...
