Aggregate Models, Not Explanations: Improving Feature Importance Estimation

ICML 2026poster

Feature-importance methods show promise for transforming machine learning (ML) models from predictive engines into tools for scientific discovery. However, expressive models can be unstable due to data sampling and algorithmic stochasticity, leading to inaccurate variable importance estimates, under…

Measuring Variable Importance in Heterogeneous Treatment Effects with Confidence

ICML 2025poster

Causal machine learning (ML) promises to provide powerful tools for estimating individual treatment effects. While causal methods have placed some emphasis on heterogeneity in treatment response, it is of paramount importance to clarify the nature of this heterogeneity, by highlighting which variab…

CADDA: Class-wise Automatic Differentiable Data Augmentation for EEG Signals

ICLR 2022poster

Data augmentation is a key element of deep learning pipelines, as it informs the network during training about transformations of the input data that keep the label unchanged. Manually finding adequate augmentation methods and parameters for a given pipeline is however rapidly cumbersome. In particu…
