Benchmarking Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning in Power Grid Operations

ICLR 2026poster

Improving power grid operations is essential for enhancing flexibility and accelerating grid decarbonization. Reinforcement learning (RL) has shown promise in this domain, most notably through the Learning to Run a Power Network competitions, but prior work has primarily focused on single-agent sett…

CausalProfiler: Generating Synthetic Benchmarks for Rigorous and Transparent Evaluation of Causal Machine Learning

ICML 2026poster

Causal machine learning (Causal ML) aims to answer "what if" questions using machine learning algorithms, making it a promising tool for high-stakes decision-making. Yet, empirical evaluation practices in Causal ML remain limited. Existing benchmarks often rely on a handful of hand-crafted or semi-s…

From Bytes to Ideas: Language Modeling with Autoregressive U-Nets

NeurIPS 2025poster

Tokenization imposes a fixed granularity on the input text, freezing how a language model operates on data and how far in the future it predicts. Byte Pair Encoding (BPE) and similar schemes split text once, build a static vocabulary, and leave the model stuck with that choice. We relax this rigidit…

Position: Causal Machine Learning Requires Rigorous Synthetic Experiments for Broader Adoption

ICML 2025poster

Causal machine learning has the potential to revolutionize decision-making by combining the predictive power of machine learning algorithms with the theory of causal inference. However, these methods remain underutilized by the broader machine learning community, in part because current empirical ev…

Learning meta-features for AutoML

ICLR 2022spotlight

This paper tackles the AutoML problem, aimed to automatically select an ML algorithm and its hyper-parameter configuration most appropriate to the dataset at hand. The proposed approach, MetaBu, learns new meta-features via an Optimal Transport procedure, aligning the manually designed \mf s with th…

Deep Statistical Solvers

NeurIPS 2020poster

This paper introduces Deep Statistical Solvers (DSS), a new class of trainable solvers for optimization problems, arising e.g., from system simulations. The key idea is to learn a solver that generalizes to a given distribution of problem instances. This is achieved by directly using as loss the obj…

Multi-Domain Adversarial Learning

ICLR 2019poster

Multi-domain learning (MDL) aims at obtaining a model with minimal average risk across multiple domains. Our empirical motivation is automated microscopy data, where cultured cells are imaged after being exposed to known and unknown chemical perturbations, and each dataset displays significant exper…
