Seldon Core Release 0.4.1¶
A summary of the main contributions to the Seldon Core release 0.4.1.
Black Box Model Explanations¶
By utlizing Seldon’sopen source Model Explanation library Alibi we provide the ability to launch a model and an associated explainer for that model. At present we support the Anchors explanation technique for tabular text and image examples.
An example SeldonDeployment for an image model with associated explainer is shown below:
apiVersion: machinelearning.seldon.io/v1alpha2
kind: SeldonDeployment

name: image

explainer:
type: anchor_images

The Tensorflow model has a anchor_images
explainer associated with it. An example input showing a persian cat along with an example explanation for that image showing the segment of the image the model focused on for providing the classifcation result can be seen below.


We provide an example notebook with tabular, text and image model examples.
Misc. Updates¶
We now use Jenkins X as our project CICD platform.
We are available on the RedHat Container Catalog. Update to 0.4.1 soon.
