Surrogate model for time-series model interpretation

Abstract

Provided is a system and method which build a composite time-series machine learning model including a core model and a debrief model that includes a combination of the core model and a surrogate model. In one example, the method may include executing the plurality of models on test data and determining accuracy values and interpretability toughness values for the plurality models, selecting a most accurate model as a core model based on the accuracy values and select a most interpretable model as a surrogate model from among other models remaining in the plurality of models based on the interpretability toughness values, building a composite model comprising the core model, the surrogate model, and instructions for generating a debrief model for debriefing the core model based on a combination of the core model and the surrogate model, and storing the composite model within the memory.
