As machine learning models become more complex, understanding why they make certain predictions is becoming just as important as the predictions themselves. Whether you're dealing with business stakeholders, regulators, or just debugging unexpected results, the ability to explain your model is no longer optional , it's essential.

In this talk, we'll walk through practical tools in the Python ecosystem that help bring transparency to your models, including SHAP, LIME, and Captum. Through hands-on examples, you'll learn how to apply these libraries to real-world models from decision trees to deep neural networks and make sense of what's happening under the hood.

If you've ever struggled to explain your model’s output or justify its decisions, this session will give you a toolkit to build more trustworthy, interpretable systems without sacrificing performance.
