Compositional Causal Reasoning Evaluation in Language Models

ICML 2025poster

Causal reasoning and compositional reasoning are two core aspirations in AI. Measuring the extent of these behaviors requires principled evaluation methods. We explore a unified perspective that considers both behaviors simultaneously, termed *compositional causal reasoning* (CCR): the ability to in…

Reasoning Elicitation in Language Models via Counterfactual Feedback

ICLR 2025oral

Despite the increasing effectiveness of language models, their reasoning capabilities remain underdeveloped. In particular, causal reasoning through counterfactual question answering is lacking. This work aims to bridge this gap. We first derive novel metrics that balance accuracy in factual and cou…

Hybrid Top-Down Global Causal Discovery with Local Search for Linear and Nonlinear Additive Noise Models

NeurIPS 2024poster

Learning the unique directed acyclic graph corresponding to an unknown causal model is a challenging task. Methods based on functional causal models can identify a unique graph, but either suffer from the curse of dimensionality or impose strong parametric assumptions. To address these challenges, w…
