Causal discovery from observational data, i.e., learning the causal graph from a finite set of samples from the joint distribution of the variables, is often the first step toward the identification and estimation of causal effects, a key requirement in numerous scientific domains. Causal discovery
The Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS) model is a widely used model for the spread of information and infectious diseases, particularly non-immunizing ones, on a graph. Given a highly contagious disease, a natural question is how to best vaccinate individuals to minimize the disease's extinction…
Identifying causal effects is a key problem of interest across many disciplines. The two long-standing approaches to estimate causal effects are observational and experimental (randomized) studies. Observational studies can suffer from unmeasured confounding, which may render the causal effects unid…
We consider contextual combinatorial volatile multi-armed bandit (CCV-MAB), in which at each round, the learner observes a set of available base arms and their contexts, and then, selects a super arm that contains $K$ base arms in order to maximize its cumulative reward. Under the semi-bandit feedba…
