Lightweight Inspection of Data Preprocessing in Native Machine Learning Pipelines
Summary: mlinspect: a library that extracts a DAG representation of Python ML preprocessing pipelines to enable lightweight lineage-based inspection of brittle data issues affecting reliability, accountability, and fairness. Automatically instruments declarative abstractions (estimator/transformer pipelines) via lightweight annotation propagation—no manual code instrumentation—enabling end-to-end inspection in native ML stacks.
