Amortized learning of neural causal representations

2020-08-21 · Nan Rosemary Ke, Jane. X. Wang, Jovana Mitrovic, Martin Szummer, Danilo J. Rezende

Causal models can compactly and efficiently encode the data-generating process under all interventions and hence may generalize better under changes in distribution. These models are often represented as Bayesian networks and learning them scales poorly with the number of variables. Moreover, these approaches cannot leverage previously learned knowledge to help with learning new causal models. In order to tackle these challenges, we represent a novel algorithm called \textit{causal relational networks} (CRN) for learning causal models using neural networks. The CRN represent causal models using continuous representations and hence could scale much better with the number of variables. These models also take in previously learned information to facilitate learning of new causal models. Finally, we propose a decoding-based metric to evaluate causal models with continuous representations. We test our method on synthetic data achieving high accuracy and quick adaptation to previously unseen causal models.

Amortized Causal Discovery: Learning to Infer Causal Graphs from Time-Series Data

2020-06-18 · Sindy Löwe, David Madras, Richard Zemel, Max Welling

On time-series data, most causal discovery methods fit a new model whenever they encounter samples from a new underlying causal graph. However, these samples often share relevant information which is lost when following …
