Behind the workings of lime lies the (big) assumption that every complex model is linear on a local scale. While this is not justified in the paper it is not difficult to convince yourself that this is generally sound — you usually expect -two very similar observations to behave predictably even in a complex model. +two very similar observations to behave predictably even in a complex model (this is basically what we'd expect when assuming the [taylor series](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series) around the observation of interest is good enough with just the first order approximation). `lime` then takes this assumption to its natural conclusion by asserting that it is possible to fit a simple model around a single observation that will mimic how the global model behaves at that locality. The simple model can then be used
