how to graph without spinning a local web-server about interpret HOT 9 CLOSED

Hi @trungngv,

We do have a better workaround than the preserve method. If you run the following code at the top of your notebook:

from interpret.provider import InlineProvider
from interpret import set_visualize_provider

set_visualize_provider(InlineProvider())

Interpret will start rendering visualizations in Javascript, and embed them directly in the notebook (without needing to spin up a local server). You can then use the show method the exact same way as before. Ex:

ebm_global = ebm.explain_global()
show(ebm_global) # Works without a web server if set_visualize_provider() was run earlier

Please let us know if this works for you!

Hi @jyipks - thanks for the issue,

There's two ways as mentioned. For the first where the web server needs to be spun up but at a specific address there's this:

from interpret import set_show_addr

set_show_addr(('127.0.0.1', 7001))

show(explanation)  # Will run on 127.0.0.1/localhost at port 7001

However if you don't want to spin up the web server at all, you won't get the dashboard but you can still plot the graphs with the preserve method as such:

# Replace show with the preserve.

ebm_global = ebm.explain_global(name='EBM')
# show(ebm_global)

from interpret import preserve
# preserve(ebm_global, 'Age', file_name='global-age-graph.html')
preserve(ebm_global, 'Age')

Currently preserve is a stop-gap measure, in the future we'll try to have the show method handle environments where it is either impossible or not agreeable to run a web server.

Is it possible to retrieve the "Summary" page?

For example, without needing to specify column name:

preserve(ebm_global)

from interpret.

Just a note, preserve also allows locating via the index besides the column name. Especially useful for local interpretations

preserve(ebm_local, 0, file_name='example0.html')

@interpret-ml has this issue been fixed yet?

I attempted this on version 0.1.19 and I got the following, am I missing something?
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'interpret.provider'

Hi @jyipks,

That's interesting. Can you try the following?

pip uninstall interpret
pip uninstall interpret-core

and then run

pip install interpret

Effectively reinstalling the interpret library. We've seen this in rare cases where upgrading interpret from older versions can cause issues.

@interpret-ml yes, thanks for the for quick fix. This is working for me now except a separate issue related to IOpub data rate, which seems to be due to dash. This stackoverflow question has the fix:

Hi @trungngv --

Great to hear it's working, and it looks like the other issue is resolved per the stackoverflow thread.
