Structural Causal 3D Reconstruction
This paper considers the problem of unsupervised 3D object reconstruction from in-the-wild single-view images. Due to ambiguity and intrinsic ill-posedness, this problem is inherently difficult to solve and therefore requires strong regularization to achieve disentanglement of different latent factors. Unlike existing works that introduce explicit regularizations into objective functions, we look into a different space for implicit regularization -- the structure of latent space. Specifically, we restrict the structure of latent space to capture a topological causal ordering of latent factors (i.e., representing causal dependency as a directed acyclic graph). We first show that different causal orderings matter for 3D reconstruction, and then explore several approaches to find a task-dependent causal factor ordering. Our experiments demonstrate that the latent space structure indeed serves as an implicit regularization and introduces an inductive bias beneficial for reconstruction.

Quantitative relations among causality measures with applications to nonlinear pulse-output network reconstruction
The causal connectivity of a network is often inferred to understand the network function. It is arguably acknowledged that the inferred causal connectivity relies on causality measure one applies, and it may differ from…
DCD-PFN: A Decoupling-Aware Foundation Model for Causal Discovery
Causal discovery is critical for understanding complex data-generating mechanisms, yet traditional algorithms often struggle with highly non-linear and noisy systems, or suffer from severe computational bottlenecks. Rece…

A Critical View of the Structural Causal Model
In the univariate case, we show that by comparing the individual complexities of univariate cause and effect, one can identify the cause and the effect, without considering their interaction at all. In our framework, com…
