The process of editing an image can be naturally modeled as evaluating a counterfactual query: “What would an image look like if a particular feature had changed?” While recent advances in text-guided image editing leverage powerful pre-trained models to produce visually appealing images, they ofte…
Understanding the predictions made by deep learning models remains a central challenge, especially in high-stakes applications. A promising approach is to equip models with the ability to answer counterfactual questions -- hypothetical ``what if?'' scenarios that go beyond the observed data and prov…
Counterfactual image editing is a challenging task within generative AI. The current literature on the topic focuses primarily on changing individual features while being silent about the causal relationships between features, which are present in the real world. In this paper, we first formalize th…
Considering various data modalities, such as images, videos, and text, humans perform causal reasoning using high-level causal variables, as opposed to operating at the low, pixel level from which the data comes. In practice, most causal reasoning methods assume that the data is described as granul…
Evaluating hypothetical statements about how the world would be had a different course of action been taken is arguably one key capability expected from modern AI systems. Counterfactual reasoning underpins discussions in fairness, the determination of blame and responsibility, credit assignment, an…
Hyperspectral images (HSIs) clustering problem is a challenge and valuable task due to its inherent complexity and abundant spectral information. Sparse subspace clustering (SSC) and SSC-based methods are widely used in this problem and demonstrate excellent performance. However, considering that HS…
