Description: When building complex models, it is often difficult to
        explain why the model should be trusted. While global measures
        such as accuracy are useful, they cannot be used for explaining
        why a model made a specific prediction. 'lime' (a port of the
        'lime' 'Python' package) is a method for explaining the outcome
        of black box models by fitting a local model around the point
        in question an perturbations of this point. The approach is
        described in more detail in the article by Ribeiro et al.
