Recent advancements in causal inference are increasingly focused on enhancing the applicability and efficiency of causal methods in real-world scenarios. A notable trend is the integration of large language models into causal reasoning, exemplified by initiatives like InterveneBench, which benchmarks intervention reasoning capabilities in social science contexts. This shift aims to address the limitations of existing models in understanding complex causal relationships. Additionally, frameworks such as InferenceEvolve leverage evolutionary algorithms to refine causal estimators, demonstrating improved performance over traditional methods. The exploration of optimal experimental designs, as seen in recent work on selecting cost-effective experiments for causal queries, highlights a growing emphasis on maximizing the utility of experimental data. Furthermore, approaches like Active Causal Experimentalist (ACE) are redefining experimental design by employing adaptive strategies based on learned preferences, suggesting a move toward more dynamic and responsive causal inference methodologies. These developments collectively aim to solve pressing commercial challenges, particularly in fields like healthcare, economics, and policy-making, where understanding causal relationships is critical for informed decision-making.

Causal inference in social science relies on end-to-end, intervention-centered research-design reasoning grounded in real-world policy interventions, but current benchmarks fail to evaluate this capab...
Understanding why real-world events occur is important for both natural language processing and practical decision-making, yet direct-cause inference remains underexplored in evidence-rich settings. T...
Treatment effects estimated from randomized controlled trials are local not only to the study population but also to the time at which the trial was conducted. We develop a framework for temporal tran...
Instrumental-variable (IV) regression enables causal estimation under endogeneity, but modern IV problems often involve nonlinear structural effects and high-dimensional covariates. Existing nonlinear...
Causal inference is central to scientific discovery, yet choosing appropriate methods remains challenging because of the complexity of both statistical methodology and real-world data. Inspired by the...
Regulatory stress testing requires projecting credit losses under hypothetical macroeconomic scenarios -- a fundamentally causal question typically treated as a prediction problem. We propose a framew...
Causal queries are often only partially identifiable from observational data, and experiments that could tighten the resulting bounds are typically costly. We study the problem of selecting, prior to ...
Understanding directed temporal interactions in multivariate time series is essential for interpreting complex dynamical systems and the predictive models trained on them. We present Causal-INSIGHT, a...
Discovering causal relationships requires controlled experiments, but experimentalists face a sequential decision problem: each intervention reveals information that should inform what to try next. Tr...
We introduce structural causal bottleneck models (SCBMs), a novel class of structural causal models. At the core of SCBMs lies the assumption that causal effects between high-dimensional variables onl...
