Causal Machine Learning Is Not a Panacea: A Roadmap for Observational Causal Inference in Health
Donna Tjandra, Trenton Chang, Sonali Parbhoo +8
Objective: The growing availability of large-scale observational clinical datasets and challenges in conducting randomized controlled trials have spurred enthusiasm in using causal…
Estimating Misreporting in the Presence of Genuine Modification: A Causal Perspective
Dylan Zapzalka, Trenton Chang, Lindsay Warrenburg +5
In settings where ML models are used to inform the allocation of resources, agents affected by the allocation decisions might have an incentive to strategically change their featur…
Who's Gaming the System? A Causally-Motivated Approach for Detecting Strategic Adaptation
Trenton Chang, Lindsay Warrenburg, Sae-Hwan Park +3
In many settings, machine learning models may be used to inform decisions that impact individuals or entities who interact with the model. Such entities, or agents, may game model…
Multi-Similarity Contrastive Learning
Emily Mu, John Guttag, Maggie Makar
Given a similarity metric, contrastive methods learn a representation in which examples that are similar are pushed together and examples that are dissimilar are pulled apart. Cont…
Leveraging Factored Action Spaces for Efficient Offline Reinforcement Learning in Healthcare
Shengpu Tang, Maggie Makar, Michael W. Sjoding +2
Many reinforcement learning (RL) applications have combinatorial action spaces, where each action is a composition of sub-actions. A standard RL approach ignores this inherent fact…
Fairness and robustness in anti-causal prediction
Maggie Makar, Alexander D'Amour
Robustness to distribution shift and fairness have independently emerged as two important desiderata required of modern machine learning models. While these two desiderata seem rel…
Causally motivated Shortcut Removal Using Auxiliary Labels
Maggie Makar, Ben Packer, Dan Moldovan +3
Shortcut learning, in which models make use of easy-to-represent but unstable associations, is a major failure mode for robust machine learning. We study a flexible, causally-motiv…
Estimation of Bounds on Potential Outcomes For Decision Making
Maggie Makar, Fredrik D. Johansson, John Guttag +1
Estimation of individual treatment effects is commonly used as the basis for contextual decision making in fields such as healthcare, education, and economics. However, it is often…
