=============================== Introduction to CinnaMon

CinnaMon is a Python library which allows to monitor data drift on a machine learning system. It provides tools to study data drift between two datasets, especially to detect, explain, and correct data drift.

⚡️ Quickstart

As a quick example, let's illustrate the use of CinnaMon on the breast cancer data where we voluntarily introduce some data drift.

Setup the data and build a model

.. code:: python

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from sklearn import datasets
>>> from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
>>> from xgboost import XGBClassifier

# load breast cancer data
>>> dataset = datasets.load_breast_cancer()
>>> X = pd.DataFrame(dataset.data, columns = dataset.feature_names)
>>> y = dataset.target

# split data in train and valid dataset
>>> X_train, X_valid, y_train, y_valid = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.3, random_state=2021)

# introduce some data drift in valid by filtering with 'worst symmetry' feature
>>> y_valid = y_valid[X_valid['worst symmetry'].values > 0.3]
>>> X_valid = X_valid.loc[X_valid['worst symmetry'].values > 0.3, :].copy()

# fit a XGBClassifier on the training data
>>> clf = XGBClassifier(use_label_encoder=False)
>>> clf.fit(X=X_train, y=y_train, verbose=10)

Initialize ModelDriftExplainer and fit on train and validation data

.. code:: python

>>> import cinnamon
>>> from cinnamon.drift import ModelDriftExplainer

# initialize a drift explainer with the built XGBClassifier and fit it on train
# and valid data
>>> drift_explainer = ModelDriftExplainer(model=clf)
>>> drift_explainer.fit(X1=X_train, X2=X_valid, y1=y_train, y2=y_valid)

Detect data drift by looking at main graphs and metrics

.. code:: python

# Distribution of logit predictions
>>> cinnamon.plot_prediction_drift(drift_explainer, bins=15)

.. image:: https://github.com/zelros/cinnamon/raw/master/docs/img/plot_prediction_drift.png :width: 400 :align: center

We can see on this graph that because of the data drift we introduced in validation data the distribution of predictions are different (they do not overlap well). We can also compute the corresponding drift metrics:

.. code:: python

# Corresponding metrics
>>> drift_explainer.get_prediction_drift()
[{'mean_difference': -3.643428434667366,
'wasserstein': 3.643428434667366,
'kolmogorov_smirnov': KstestResult(statistic=0.2913775225333014, pvalue=0.00013914094110123454)}]

Comparing the distributions of predictions for two datasets is one of the main indicator we use in order to detect data drift. The two other indicators are:

• distribution of the target (see get_target_drift)
• performance metrics (see get_performance_metrics_drift)

Explain data drift by computing the drift importances

Drift importances can be thought as equivalent of feature importances but in terms of data drift.

.. code:: python

# plot drift importances
>>> cinnamon.plot_tree_based_drift_importances(drift_explainer, n=7)

.. image:: https://github.com/zelros/cinnamon/raw/master/docs/img/plot_drift_values.png :width: 400 :align: center

Here the feature worst symmetry is rightly identified as the one which contributes the most to the data drift.

🛠 Installation

CinnaMon is intended to work with Python 3.7 or above. Installation can be done with pip:

.. code:: sh

$ pip install cinnamon

🔗 Notes

• CinnaMon documentation <https://cinnamon.readthedocs.io/en/latest>_
• The two main classes of CinnaMon are ModelDriftExplainer and AdversarialDriftExplainer
• CinnaMon supports both model specific and model agnostic methods for the computation of drift importances. More information here <https://cinnamon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/model_support.html>_.
• CinnaMon can be used with any model or ML pipeline thanks to model agnostic mode.

• See notebooks in the examples/ directory to have an overview of all functionalities. Notably:

  • Covariate shift example with IEEE data <https://github.com/zelros/cinnamon/blob/master/examples/ieee_fraud_simulated_covariate_shift_card6.ipynb>_
  • Concept drift example with IEEE data <https://github.com/zelros/cinnamon/blob/master/examples/ieee_fraud_simulated_concept_drift_card6.ipynb>_

  These two notebooks also go deeper into the topic of how to correct data drift, making use of AdversarialDriftExplainer

• See also the slide presentation <https://yohannlefaou.github.io/publications/2021-cinnamon/Detect_explain_and_correct_data_drift_in_a_machine_learning_system.pdf> of the CinnaMon library. And the video presentation <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3qoBBwSS1I>.
