What is the SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) framework and what game-theoretic concept underlies it?

Accepted Answer

The SHAP framework is a model-agnostic explainability tool that uses Shapley values from cooperative game theory to attribute feature contributions to predictions. This ensures local accuracy, missingness, and consistency in the interpretation of machine learning models.
