Causal discovery from observational and interventional data across multiple environments

NeurIPS 2023poster

A fundamental problem in many sciences is the learning of causal structure underlying a system, typically through observation and experimentation. Commonly, one even collects data across multiple domains, such as gene sequencing from different labs, or neural recordings from different species. Altho…

Causal Identification under Markov equivalence: Calculus, Algorithm, and Completeness

NeurIPS 2022accept

One common task in many data sciences applications is to answer questions about the effect of new interventions, like: `what would happen to $Y$ if we make $X$ equal to $x$ while observing covariates $Z=z$?'. Formally, this is known as conditional effect identification, where the goal is to determin…

Causal Discovery from Soft Interventions with Unknown Targets: Characterization and Learning

NeurIPS 2020poster

One fundamental problem in the empirical sciences is of reconstructing the causal structure that underlies a phenomenon of interest through observation and experimentation. While there exists a plethora of methods capable of learning the equivalence class of causal structures that are compatible wit…

Characterization and Learning of Causal Graphs with Latent Variables from Soft Interventions

NeurIPS 2019poster

The challenge of learning the causal structure underlying a certain phenomenon is undertaken by connecting the set of conditional independences (CIs) readable from the observational data, on the one side, with the set of corresponding constraints implied over the graphical structure, on the other,…

Identification of Conditional Causal Effects under Markov Equivalence

NeurIPS 2019spotlight

Causal identification is the problem of deciding whether a post-interventional distribution is computable from a combination of qualitative knowledge about the data-generating process, which is encoded in a causal diagram, and an observational distribution. A generalization of this problem restricts…
