The paper defines computational identifiability as success of a finite search procedure in finding an empirical estimator for a causal query within error tolerance, conditional on the search assumptions and procedure.
MediEncoder jointly learns nonlinear low-dimensional covariate and mediator representations via a coupled encoder-decoder with cross-factor network, then applies them in an efficient influence function estimator for natural direct and indirect effects.
Proximal confounding bridge functions yield four nonparametric identification strategies and a quadruply robust estimator for path-specific effects under unmeasured confounding.
A meta-learning method identifies the conditional mean of task-specific causal demand parameters by conditioning on all prices while masking two demand outcomes, assuming at least two locally exogenous prices per task.
Interventions in LLM-simulated user experiments induce distribution shifts in latent attributes that create confounding bias, diagnosable with negative control outcomes and partially mitigated by adding setting-relevant persona details.
Causal effects are identifiable for categorical unobserved confounders via mixture learning and tensor decomposition, yielding consistent estimators with non-asymptotic guarantees.
A new adaptive variance estimator for relative sparsity coefficients is introduced that fully utilizes the prior asymptotic normality theorem and incorporates variable selection effects.
A diagnostic that measures instability of constraint-based causal graphs over increasing conditioning depths to detect hidden confounding or incomplete state in time series observational data.
