Latent Variable Causal Discovery under Selection Bias
Haoyue Dai, Yiwen Qiu, Ignavier Ng +3
Addressing selection bias in latent variable causal discovery is important yet underexplored, largely due to a lack of suitable statistical tools: While various tools beyond basic…
Score-based Greedy Search for Structure Identification of Partially Observed Linear Causal Models
Xinshuai Dong, Ignavier Ng, Haoyue Dai +4
Identifying the structure of a partially observed causal system is essential to various scientific fields. Recent advances have focused on constraint-based causal discovery to solv…
PersonaX: Multimodal Datasets with LLM-Inferred Behavior Traits
Loka Li, Wong Yu Kang, Minghao Fu +7
Understanding human behavior traits is central to applications in human-computer interaction, computational social science, and personalized AI systems. Such understanding often re…
Position: Beyond Sensitive Attributes, ML Fairness Should Quantify Structural Injustice via Social Determinants
Zeyu Tang, Alex John London, Atoosa Kasirzadeh +4
Algorithmic fairness research has largely framed unfairness as discrimination along sensitive attributes. However, this approach limits visibility into unfairness as structural inj…
Generative Framework for Personalized Persuasion: Inferring Causal, Counterfactual, and Latent Knowledge
Donghuo Zeng, Roberto Legaspi, Yuewen Sun +4
We hypothesize that optimal system responses emerge from adaptive strategies grounded in causal and counterfactual knowledge. Counterfactual inference allows us to create hypotheti…
Causal Discovery and Counterfactual Reasoning to Optimize Persuasive Dialogue Policies
Donghuo Zeng, Roberto Legaspi, Yuewen Sun +4
Tailoring persuasive conversations to users leads to more effective persuasion. However, existing dialogue systems often struggle to adapt to dynamically evolving user states. This…
When Selection Meets Intervention: Additional Complexities in Causal Discovery
Haoyue Dai, Ignavier Ng, Jianle Sun +5
We address the common yet often-overlooked selection bias in interventional studies, where subjects are selectively enrolled into experiments. For instance, participants in a drug…
Reflection-Window Decoding: Text Generation with Selective Refinement
Zeyu Tang, Zhenhao Chen, Xiangchen Song +6
The autoregressive decoding for text generation in large language models (LLMs), while widely used, is inherently suboptimal due to the lack of a built-in mechanism to perform refi…
Permutation-Based Rank Test in the Presence of Discretization and Application in Causal Discovery with Mixed Data
Xinshuai Dong, Ignavier Ng, Boyang Sun +6
Recent advances have shown that statistical tests for the rank of cross-covariance matrices play an important role in causal discovery. These rank tests include partial correlation…
