Calibrated Explanations comparisons (CE-first)

All code examples in this repo use WrapCalibratedExplainer.

vs SHAP

  • ✅ Endpoint envelopes describing how features shift predictive boundaries

  • ✅ Calibrated predictions included

  • ⚠️ Requires held-out calibration set for guarantees (SHAP does not)

vs LIME

  • ✅ Built-in uncertainty quantification and more stable rules

  • ⚠️ Needs calibration set

vs Conformal Prediction packages

  • ✅ Provides both calibrated predictions and feature-level uncertainty / explanations

  • ✅ Builds on conformal methods (Venn-Abers, CPS)

  • ⚠️ Conformal focuses on prediction sets or intervals
