public sealed class ExplanationMetadataOverride : IMessage<ExplanationMetadataOverride>, IEquatable<ExplanationMetadataOverride>, IDeepCloneable<ExplanationMetadataOverride>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Reference documentation and code samples for the Vertex AI v1beta1 API class ExplanationMetadataOverride.
The
[ExplanationMetadata][google.cloud.aiplatform.v1beta1.ExplanationMetadata]
entries that can be overridden at [online
explanation][google.cloud.aiplatform.v1beta1.PredictionService.Explain] time.
public MapField<string, ExplanationMetadataOverride.Types.InputMetadataOverride> Inputs { get; }
Required. Overrides the [input
metadata][google.cloud.aiplatform.v1beta1.ExplanationMetadata.inputs] of
the features. The key is the name of the feature to be overridden. The keys
specified here must exist in the input metadata to be overridden. If a
feature is not specified here, the corresponding feature's input metadata
is not overridden.
