Pragmatic Fairness: Developing Policies with Outcome Disparity Control
Limor Gultchin, Siyuan Guo, Alan Malek +2
We introduce a causal framework for designing optimal policies that satisfy fairness constraints. We take a pragmatic approach asking what we can do with an action space available…
Causal Inference with Treatment Measurement Error: A Nonparametric Instrumental Variable Approach
Yuchen Zhu, Limor Gultchin, Arthur Gretton +2
We propose a kernel-based nonparametric estimator for the causal effect when the cause is corrupted by error. We do so by generalizing estimation in the instrumental variable setti…
Beyond Impossibility: Balancing Sufficiency, Separation and Accuracy
Limor Gultchin, Vincent Cohen-Addad, Sophie Giffard-Roisin +2
Among the various aspects of algorithmic fairness studied in recent years, the tension between satisfying both \textit{sufficiency} and \textit{separation} -- e.g. the ratios of po…
Operationalizing Complex Causes: A Pragmatic View of Mediation
Limor Gultchin, David S. Watson, Matt J. Kusner +1
We examine the problem of causal response estimation for complex objects (e.g., text, images, genomics). In this setting, classical \emph{atomic} interventions are often not availa…
Proximal Causal Learning with Kernels: Two-Stage Estimation and Moment Restriction
Afsaneh Mastouri, Yuchen Zhu, Limor Gultchin +5
We address the problem of causal effect estimation in the presence of unobserved confounding, but where proxies for the latent confounder(s) are observed. We propose two kernel-bas…
Local Explanations via Necessity and Sufficiency: Unifying Theory and Practice
David Watson, Limor Gultchin, Ankur Taly +1
Necessity and sufficiency are the building blocks of all successful explanations. Yet despite their importance, these notions have been conceptually underdeveloped and inconsistent…
Differentiable Causal Backdoor Discovery
Limor Gultchin, Matt J. Kusner, Varun Kanade +1
Discovering the causal effect of a decision is critical to nearly all forms of decision-making. In particular, it is a key quantity in drug development, in crafting government poli…
