Proxy-Adjusted Causal Discovery from Targeted Interventions

Li Chen, Wei Pan, Xiaotong Shen

Randomized perturbations can reveal downstream responses without identifying which causal relationships are direct. Conditioning on intermediate responses may induce associations t…

Causality-Encoded Diffusion Models for Interventional Sampling and Edge Inference

Li Chen, Xiaotong Shen, Wei Pan

Standard diffusion models are flexible estimators of complex distributions, but they do not encode causal structures and therefore do not by themselves support causal analysis. We…

Diffusion-Driven High-Dimensional Variable Selection

Minjie Wang, Xiaotong Shen, Wei Pan

Variable selection for high-dimensional, highly correlated data has long been a challenging problem, often yielding unstable and unreliable models. We propose a resample-aggregate…

Enhancing Causal Effect Estimation with Diffusion-Generated Data

Li Chen, Xiaotong Shen, Wei Pan

Estimating causal effects from observational data is inherently challenging due to the lack of observable counterfactual outcomes and even the presence of unmeasured confounding. T…

Causal Discovery with Generalized Linear Models through Peeling Algorithms

Minjie Wang, Xiaotong Shen, Wei Pan

This article presents a novel method for causal discovery with generalized structural equation models suited for analyzing diverse types of outcomes, including discrete, continuous…

Discovery and inference of a causal network with hidden confounding

Li Chen, Chunlin Li, Xiaotong Shen +1

This article proposes a novel causal discovery and inference method called GrIVET for a Gaussian directed acyclic graph with unmeasured confounders. GrIVET consists of an order-bas…

Data-Adaptive Discriminative Feature Localization with Statistically Guaranteed Interpretation

Ben Dai, Xiaotong Shen, Lin Yee Chen +2

In explainable artificial intelligence, discriminative feature localization is critical to reveal a blackbox model's decision-making process from raw data to prediction. In this ar…

Two-level monotonic multistage recommender systems

Ben Dai, Xiaotong Shen, Wei Pan

A recommender system learns to predict the user-specific preference or intention over many items simultaneously for all users, making personalized recommendations based on a relati…
