Research talk: Challenges and opportunities in causal machine learning
This talk will highlight the big challenges in causal ML research and present our vision for development and use of causal ML technology for real-world decision making. Microsoft Researchers will focus on what’s needed to achieve the twin benefits: how can machine learning become more robust through causal reasoning, and how causal inference algorithms become more scalable and testable through machine learning techniques.
