Natural Counterfactuals With Necessary Backtracking

Guang-Yuan Hao, Jiji Zhang, Biwei Huang +2

Counterfactual reasoning is pivotal in human cognition and especially important for providing explanations and making decisions. While Judea Pearl's influential approach is theoret…

Reframed GES with a Neural Conditional Dependence Measure

Xinwei Shen, Shengyu Zhu, Jiji Zhang +2

In a nonparametric setting, the causal structure is often identifiable only up to Markov equivalence, and for the purpose of causal inference, it is useful to learn a graphical rep…

What-is and How-to for Fairness in Machine Learning: A Survey, Reflection, and Perspective

Zeyu Tang, Jiji Zhang, Kun Zhang

Algorithmic fairness has attracted increasing attention in the machine learning community. Various definitions are proposed in the literature, but the differences and connections a…

Markov categories, causal theories, and the do-calculus

Yimu Yin, Jiji Zhang

We give a category-theoretic treatment of causal models that formalizes the syntax for causal reasoning over a directed acyclic graph (DAG) by associating a free Markov category wi…

Reliable Causal Discovery with Improved Exact Search and Weaker Assumptions

Ignavier Ng, Yujia Zheng, Jiji Zhang +1

Many of the causal discovery methods rely on the faithfulness assumption to guarantee asymptotic correctness. However, the assumption can be approximately violated in many ways, le…

Ancestral Instrument Method for Causal Inference without Complete Knowledge

Debo Cheng, Jiuyong Li, Lin Liu +3

Unobserved confounding is the main obstacle to causal effect estimation from observational data. Instrumental variables (IVs) are widely used for causal effect estimation when ther…
