中文简介:
机器学习传统上一直专注于预测。鉴于由未知随机依赖性产生的观察结果,目标是推断出能够正确预测由同一依赖性产生的未来观察的定律。相反,统计学传统上关注于数据建模,即,关于已经生成数据的概率定律的估计。近年来,两个学科之间的界限变得模糊,两个社区都采用了另一个学科的方法,然而,可以公平地说,他们都没有完全接受因果建模的领域,即检测到数据背后的因果结构。自八十年代以来,有一个研究人员社区,主要来自统计学和哲学,他们开发了旨在从观察数据中推断出因果关系的方法。虽然这个社区仍然相对较小,但最近得到了许多机器学习研究人员的补充。本次研讨会的目的是讨论从经验数据,其应用和评估其成功的方法的因果发现的新方法。重点将放在要达到的目标的定义和评估提出的解决方案的评估方法上。鼓励参与者参加比赛,讨论交换数据集和问题并提出解决方案。
课程简介: Machine learning has traditionally been focused on prediction. Given observations that have been generated by an unknown stochastic dependency, the goal is to infer a law that will be able to correctly predict future observations generated by the same dependency. Statistics, in contrast, has traditionally focused on data modeling, i.e., on the estimation of a probability law that has generated the data. During recent years, the boundaries between the two disciplines have become blurred and both communities have adopted methods from the other, however, it is probably fair to say that neither of them has yet fully embraced the field of causal modeling, i.e., the detection of causal structure underlying the data. Since the Eighties there has been a community of researchers, mostly from statistics and philosophy, who have developed methods aiming at inferring causal relationships from observational data. While this community has remained relatively small, it has recently been complemented by a number of researchers from machine learning. The goal of this workshop is to discuss new approaches to causal discovery from empirical data, their applications and methods to evaluate their success. Emphasis will be put on the definition of objectives to be reached and assessment methods to evaluate proposed solutions. The participants are encouraged to participate in a competition pot-luck in which datasets and problems will be exchanged and solutions proposed.
