FEDEX: An Explainability Framework for Data Exploration Steps
Summary: FEDEX, explainability framework for data exploration, pinpoints interesting rows in each dataframe. Interestingness is each row's contribution to column-level interestingness via diversity and exceptionality; FEDEX uses semantically related sets to explain row correlations.
