Reconciling Causality and Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics with Hamiltonian Causal Models
Dario Rancati, Max Welling, Francesco Locatello
Causal modeling of physical temporal phenomena must handle interventions that act along trajectories, nonstationary induced laws, path-dependent effects, and feedback mediated by d…
A Statistical Framework for Algorithmic Collective Action with Multiple Collectives
Claudio Battiloro, Pietro Greiner, Dario Rancati +3
As learning systems increasingly shape everyday decisions, Algorithmic Collective Action (ACA), i.e., users coordinating changes to shared data to steer model behavior, offers a co…
Learning Discrete Diffusion of Graphs via Free-Energy Gradient Flows
Dario Rancati, Jan Maas, Francesco Locatello
Diffusion-based models on continuous spaces have seen substantial recent progress through the mathematical framework of gradient flows, leveraging the Wasserstein-2 () metri…
Unifying Causal Representation Learning with the Invariance Principle
Dingling Yao, Dario Rancati, Riccardo Cadei +2
Causal representation learning (CRL) aims at recovering latent causal variables from high-dimensional observations to solve causal downstream tasks, such as predicting the effect o…
