Causal Shapley Values: Exploiting Causal Knowledge to Explain Individual Predictions of Complex Models

NeurIPS 2020poster

Shapley values underlie one of the most popular model-agnostic methods within explainable artificial intelligence. These values are designed to attribute the difference between a model's prediction and an average baseline to the different features used as input to the model. Being based on solid gam…

MASSIVE: Tractable and Robust Bayesian Learning of Many-Dimensional Instrumental Variable Models

UAI 2020poster

The recent availability of huge, many-dimensional data sets, like those arising from genome-wide association studies (GWAS), provides many opportunities for strengthening causal inference. One popular approach is to utilize these many-dimensional measurements as instrumental variables (instruments)…

Robust Causal Estimation in the Large-Sample Limit without Strict Faithfulness

AISTATS 2017poster

Causal effect estimation from observational data is an important and much studied research topic. The instrumental variable (IV) and local causal discovery (LCD) patterns are canonical examples of settings where a closed-form expression exists for the causal effect of one variable on another, given…
