Bayesian Active Learning for Bivariate Causal Discovery

ICML 2025poster

Determining the direction of relationships between variables is fundamental for understanding complex systems across scientific domains. While observational data can uncover relationships between variables, it cannot distinguish between cause and effect without experimental interventions. To effecti…

Learning Causal Alignment for Reliable Disease Diagnosis

ICLR 2025poster

Aligning the decision-making process of machine learning algorithms with that of experienced radiologists is crucial for reliable diagnosis. While existing methods have attempted to align their prediction behaviors to those of radiologists reflected in the training data, this alignment is primarily…

Causal Discovery via Conditional Independence Testing with Proxy Variables

ICML 2024poster

Distinguishing causal connections from correlations is important in many scenarios. However, the presence of unobserved variables, such as the latent confounder, can introduce bias in conditional independence testing commonly employed in constraint-based causal discovery for identifying causal relat…

Causal Discovery from Subsampled Time Series with Proxy Variables

NeurIPS 2023poster

Inferring causal structures from time series data is the central interest of many scientific inquiries. A major barrier to such inference is the problem of subsampling, *i.e.*, the frequency of measurement is much lower than that of causal influence. To overcome this problem, numerous methods have b…

Which Invariance Should We Transfer? A Causal Minimax Learning Approach

ICML 2023poster

A major barrier to deploying current machine learning models lies in their non-reliability to dataset shifts. To resolve this problem, most existing studies attempted to transfer stable information to unseen environments. Particularly, independent causal mechanisms-based methods proposed to remove m…
