# ...include code from https://github.com/keras-team/keras/blob/master/examples/mnist_cnn.py

import shap
import numpy as np

# select a set of background examples to take an expectation over
background = x_train[np.random.choice(x_train.shape[0], 100, replace=False)]

# explain predictions of the model on three images
e = shap.DeepExplainer(model, background)
# ...or pass tensors directly
# e = shap.DeepExplainer((model.layers[0].input, model.layers[-1].output), background)
shap_values = e.shap_values(x_test[1:5])

# plot the feature attributions
shap.image_plot(shap_values, -x_test[1:5])

The plot above shows the explanations for each class on four predictions. Note that the explanations are ordered for the classes 0-9 going left to right along the rows.
