Block Disentanglement in CRL: Bridging Identifiability and Visual State Estimation

Emre Acartürk, Pranamya Kulkarni, Puranjay Datta +3

Causal representation learning (CRL) is the process of recovering causally-related latent variables from high-dimensional observations. As a label-free inference method, CRL is par…

Tabular Numeric Stretch Transformation

Zihao Ye, Juyong Kim, Johnna Sundberg +2

Tabular data presents unique challenges for deep learning due to its heterogeneous nature, where numeric features exhibit diverse distributions, scales, and statistical properties.…

Eigenfunction Extraction for Ordered Representation Learning

Burak Varıcı, Che-Ping Tsai, Ritabrata Ray +2

Recent advances in representation learning reveal that widely used objectives, such as contrastive and non-contrastive, implicitly perform spectral decomposition of a contextual ke…

ROPES: Robotic Pose Estimation via Score-Based Causal Representation Learning

Pranamya Kulkarni, Puranjay Datta, Burak Varıcı +3

Causal representation learning (CRL) has emerged as a powerful unsupervised framework that (i) disentangles the latent generative factors underlying high-dimensional data, and (ii)…

Contextures: Representations from Contexts

Runtian Zhai, Kai Yang, Che-Ping Tsai +3

Despite the empirical success of foundation models, we do not have a systematic characterization of the representations that these models learn. In this paper, we establish the con…

Interventional Causal Discovery in a Mixture of DAGs

Burak Varıcı, Dmitriy Katz-Rogozhnikov, Dennis Wei +2

Causal interactions among a group of variables are often modeled by a single causal graph. In some domains, however, these interactions are best described by multiple co-existing c…

Linear Causal Representation Learning from Unknown Multi-node Interventions

Burak Varıcı, Emre Acartürk, Karthikeyan Shanmugam +1

Despite the multifaceted recent advances in interventional causal representation learning (CRL), they primarily focus on the stylized assumption of single-node interventions. This…

Improved Bound for Robust Causal Bandits with Linear Models

Zirui Yan, Arpan Mukherjee, Burak Varıcı +1

This paper investigates the robustness of causal bandits (CBs) in the face of temporal model fluctuations. This setting deviates from the existing literature's widely-adopted assum…

Score-based Causal Representation Learning: Linear and General Transformations

Burak Varıcı, Emre Acartürk, Karthikeyan Shanmugam +2

This paper addresses intervention-based causal representation learning (CRL) under a general nonparametric latent causal model and an unknown transformation that maps the latent va…

Robust Causal Bandits for Linear Models

Zirui Yan, Arpan Mukherjee, Burak Varıcı +1

Sequential design of experiments for optimizing a reward function in causal systems can be effectively modeled by the sequential design of interventions in causal bandits (CBs). In…

General Identifiability and Achievability for Causal Representation Learning

Burak Varıcı, Emre Acartürk, Karthikeyan Shanmugam +1

This paper focuses on causal representation learning (CRL) under a general nonparametric latent causal model and a general transformation model that maps the latent data to the obs…

Score-based Causal Representation Learning with Interventions

Burak Varici, Emre Acarturk, Karthikeyan Shanmugam +2

This paper studies the causal representation learning problem when the latent causal variables are observed indirectly through an unknown linear transformation. The objectives are:…

Scalable Intervention Target Estimation in Linear Models

Burak Varici, Karthikeyan Shanmugam, Prasanna Sattigeri +1

This paper considers the problem of estimating the unknown intervention targets in a causal directed acyclic graph from observational and interventional data. The focus is on soft…
