Did the prescribed: devtools::install_github("pbiecek/DALEX") but Rstudio (latest version under Linux), will not complete the DALEX install. After the above command, R will just hang and nothing happens... about dalex HOT 9 CLOSED

I'm having the same issue in openSUSE 42.3 and Rstudio Version 1.1.383

from dalex.

Could you install other packages from github?

Please let me know if this is working for you:

devtools::install_github("pbiecek/breakDown")

If not, please sent the full session_info().

from dalex.

Yes, as far as I Remember remember I can install from github, but devtools::install_github("pbiecek/breakDown") didn't work.

Hi Przemysław - thanks for answering!.

Yes, I could install the breakDown pkg 100% OK
with:
devtools::install_github("pbiecek/breakDown")
No problem...

But the DALEX pkg. does not install.
The install command:
devtools::install_github("pbiecek/DALEX")
just hangs forever (without any messages).

All the other 30+ R packages
(from GitHub or CRAN),
have all installed OK in the past.

I have R 3.4.3 and devtools 1.13.5, and everything is working, so below you will find only my guesses

@ViniciusBRodrigues I do not know portuguese but the error message looks like a problem with some part of devtools. Please try to download the source DALEX package from the link below and install it with install.packages() or bottom-right panel of RStudio.

@sfd99 Right now DALEX is more than 20MB (all these highres figures) so it may take some time to download (just a guess, on my computer it's 15 sec much more than for other packages). I will reduce size of large files some day, but in the meantime, please download only sources (linked below) and try to install them with install.packages() or bottom-right panel of RStudio.

If it is not enough, in one or two weeks DALEX should be at CRAN, then the installation will be easier.
Thanks

Hi Przemysław,

Thanks!
Will wait for the CRAN version of DALEX.

By the way,
Q:
how would you define
the difference / similarity
between DALEX and breakDown ?.
When to use one or the other package?.

Both seem to have great
but similar functionality...

breakDown is working on a level of single prediction.
DALEX is designed to be a wrapper around many different tools that may be used as a model explainers.
DALEX is using internally breakDown/pdp/ALEPlot and some other packages and unify the way in which we can work with explainers.
Like xgboost is a great library for a single type of models while caret is a wrapper around larger number of libraries with unified interface.
Hope it makes sense, It's still under heavy development

from dalex.

Yes - thank you Przemysław .
Your clear explanation
makes absolute sense.

DALEX can become
like the "CARET" pkg of "explainers".
Great idea!.

(I imagine DALEX
also wraps the LIME explainer
as well).

Will wait
until you place DALEX in CRAN.
