Entropic Inequality Constraints from e-separation Relations in Directed Acyclic Graphs with Hidden Variables

UAI 2021poster

Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) with hidde variables are often used to characterize causal relations between variables in a system. When some variables are unobserved, DAGs imply a notoriously complicated set of constraints on the distribution of observed variables. In this work, we present entropic…

Partial Identifiability in Discrete Data with Measurement Error

UAI 2021poster

When data contains measurement errors, it is necessary to make modeling assumptions relating the error-prone measurements to the unobserved true values. Work on measurement error has largely focused on models that fully identify the parameter of interest. As a result, many practically useful models…

Deriving Bounds And Inequality Constraints Using Logical Relations Among Counterfactuals

UAI 2020poster

Causal parameters may not be point identified in the presence of unobserved confounding. However, information about non-identified parameters, in the form of bounds, may still be recovered from the observed data in some cases. We develop a new general method for obtaining bounds on causal paramet…
