localModel 0.5 (2021-09-14)

• predict_surrogate function is added to provide easier interface of accessing lime/iml/localModel implementations of the LIME method. (this function wes moved to DALEXtra)

localModel 0.4.1

• Fixes the bug in handling the case where all extracted variables are constant
• Changed default theme for plots, more consistent with other DrWhy packages

localModel 0.4.0

• Add plot_interpretable_feature function to plot discretizations.
• Fixes bugs related to feature extraction.
• Changes the method of sampling new observations (features to permute are chosen from Beroulli distribution).

localModel 0.3.11 (2019-04-14)

• Changes dependencies: DALEX2 to DALEX, ceterisParibus2 to ingredients.

localModel 0.3.10

• Vignettes updated. In particular, seed is now set before using randomForest.
• Plot function now shows a message and returns and empty plot if all effects are equal to 0.
• dev.ratio from glmnet is now returned as one of the columns of surrogate_model_explainer.

localModel 0.3.9

• Explanation models is now fitted to raw predictions, not difference between predictions and model mean.

localModel 0.3.8
