audioLIME
This repository contains the Python package audioLIME, a tool for creating listenable explanations for machine learning models in music information retrival (MIR). audioLIME is based on the method LIME (local interpretable model-agnostic explanations), work presented in this paper and uses source separation estimates in order to create interpretable components. Alternative types of interpretable components are available (see the last section) and more will be added in the future.

Installation
The audioLIME package is not on PyPI yet. For installing it, clone the git repo and install it using
setup.py
.
git clone https://github.com/CPJKU/audioLIME.git # HTTPS
git clone [email protected]:CPJKU/audioLIME.git # SSH
cd audioLIME
python setup.py install
To install a version for development purposes
check out this article.
Tests
To test your installation, the following test are available (more to come :)):
python -m unittest tests.test_SpleeterFactorization
Note on Requirements
To keep it lightweight, not all possible dependencies are contained in setup.py
.
Depending on the factorization you want to use, you might need different packages,
e.g. spleeter
.
Installation & Usage of spleeter
pip install spleeter==2.0.2
When you're using spleeter
for the first time, it will download the used model in a directory
pretrained_models
. You can only change the location by setting an environment variable
MODEL_PATH
before spleeter
is imported. There are different ways to
set an environment variable,
for example:
export MODEL_PATH=/path/to/spleeter/pretrained_models/
