Generalizing Off-Policy Evaluation From a Causal Perspective For Sequential Decision-Making

Sonali Parbhoo, Shalmali Joshi, Finale Doshi-Velez

Assessing the effects of a policy based on observational data from a different policy is a common problem across several high-stake decision-making domains, and several off-policy…

Learning-to-defer for sequential medical decision-making under uncertainty

Shalmali Joshi, Sonali Parbhoo, Finale Doshi-Velez

Learning-to-defer is a framework to automatically defer decision-making to a human expert when ML-based decisions are deemed unreliable. Existing learning-to-defer frameworks are n…

Sequential Explanations with Mental Model-Based Policies

Arnold YS Yeung, Shalmali Joshi, Joseph Jay Williams +1

The act of explaining across two parties is a feedback loop, where one provides information on what needs to be explained and the other provides an explanation relevant to this inf…
