Modern cloud systems rely on architectures with many interconnected microservices, which enable scalability and flexibility but make troubleshooting failures difficult. Identifying the root cause requires navigating complex dependencies, often beyond the capacity of domain experts. Causal models off…
In constraint-based causal discovery, the existing algorithms systematically use a series of conditional independence (CI) relations observed in the data to recover an equivalence class of causal graphs in the large sample limit. One limitation of these algorithms is that CI tests lose statistical p
Finding the root cause of failures is a prominent problem in many complex networks. Causal inference provides us with tools to address this problem algorithmically to automate this process and solve it efficiently. The existing methods either use a known causal structure to identify root cause by ba
One fundamental problem in machine learning is out-of-distribution generalization. A method named the surgery estimator incorporates the causal structure in the form of a directed acyclic graph (DAG) to find predictors that are invariant across target domains using distributional invariances via Pea…
