Neural Autoregressive Flows for Markov Boundary Learning
Khoa Nguyen, Bao Duong, Viet Huynh +1
Recovering Markov boundary -- the minimal set of variables that maximizes predictive performance for a response variable -- is crucial in many applications. While recent advances i…
Identifying Causal Direction via Variational Bayesian Compression
Quang-Duy Tran, Bao Duong, Phuoc Nguyen +1
Telling apart the cause and effect between two random variables with purely observational data is a challenging problem that finds applications in various scientific disciplines. A…
Reinforcement Learning for Causal Discovery without Acyclicity Constraints
Bao Duong, Hung Le, Biwei Huang +1
Recently, reinforcement learning (RL) has proved a promising alternative for conventional local heuristics in score-based approaches to learning directed acyclic causal graphs (DAG…
Amortized Conditional Independence Testing
Bao Duong, Nu Hoang, Thin Nguyen
Testing for the conditional independence structure in data is a fundamental and critical task in statistics and machine learning, which finds natural applications in causal discove…
Causal Discovery via Bayesian Optimization
Bao Duong, Sunil Gupta, Thin Nguyen
Existing score-based methods for directed acyclic graph (DAG) learning from observational data struggle to recover the causal graph accurately and sample-efficiently. To overcome t…
