Verifiably Safe Exploration for End-to-End Reinforcement Learning

1 code implementation2 Jul 2020 Nathan Hunt, Nathan Fulton, Sara Magliacane, Nghia Hoang, Subhro Das, Armando Solar-Lezama

We also prove that our method of enforcing the safety constraints preserves all safe policies from the original environment.

CITRIS: Causal Identifiability from Temporal Intervened Sequences

1 code implementation7 Feb 2022 Phillip Lippe, Sara Magliacane, Sindy Löwe, Yuki M. Asano, Taco Cohen, Efstratios Gavves

Understanding the latent causal factors of a dynamical system from visual observations is considered a crucial step towards agents reasoning in complex environments.

Causal Representation Learning for Instantaneous and Temporal Effects in Interactive Systems

1 code implementation13 Jun 2022 Phillip Lippe, Sara Magliacane, Sindy Löwe, Yuki M. Asano, Taco Cohen, Efstratios Gavves

To address this issue, we propose iCITRIS, a causal representation learning method that allows for instantaneous effects in intervened temporal sequences when intervention targets can be observed, e. g., as actions of an agent.

AdaRL: What, Where, and How to Adapt in Transfer Reinforcement Learning

1 code implementation ICLR 2022 Biwei Huang, Fan Feng, Chaochao Lu, Sara Magliacane, Kun Zhang

We show that by explicitly leveraging this compact representation to encode changes, we can efficiently adapt the policy to the target domain, in which only a few samples are needed and further policy optimization is avoided.

BISCUIT: Causal Representation Learning from Binary Interactions

1 code implementation16 Jun 2023 Phillip Lippe, Sara Magliacane, Sindy Löwe, Yuki M. Asano, Taco Cohen, Efstratios Gavves

Identifying the causal variables of an environment and how to intervene on them is of core value in applications such as robotics and embodied AI.

Domain Adaptation by Using Causal Inference to Predict Invariant Conditional Distributions

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2018 Sara Magliacane, Thijs van Ommen, Tom Claassen, Stephan Bongers, Philip Versteeg, Joris M. Mooij

An important goal common to domain adaptation and causal inference is to make accurate predictions when the distributions for the source (or training) domain(s) and target (or test) domain(s) differ.

Ancestral Causal Inference

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2016 Sara Magliacane, Tom Claassen, Joris M. Mooij

Constraint-based causal discovery from limited data is a notoriously difficult challenge due to the many borderline independence test decisions.

Graph Switching Dynamical Systems

1 code implementation1 Jun 2023 Yongtuo Liu, Sara Magliacane, Miltiadis Kofinas, Efstratios Gavves

Dynamical systems with complex behaviours, e. g. immune system cells interacting with a pathogen, are commonly modelled by splitting the behaviour into different regimes, or modes, each with simpler dynamics, and then learning the switching behaviour from one mode to another.

Active Structure Learning of Causal DAGs via Directed Clique Tree

4 code implementations1 Nov 2020 Chandler Squires, Sara Magliacane, Kristjan Greenewald, Dmitriy Katz, Murat Kocaoglu, Karthikeyan Shanmugam

Most existing works focus on worst-case or average-case lower bounds for the number of interventions required to orient a DAG.

Active Structure Learning of Causal DAGs via Directed Clique Trees

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2020 Chandler Squires, Sara Magliacane, Kristjan Greenewald, Dmitriy Katz, Murat Kocaoglu, Karthikeyan Shanmugam

Most existing works focus on \textit{worst-case} or \textit{average-case} lower bounds for the number of interventions required to orient a DAG.

Modulated Neural ODEs

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2023 Ilze Amanda Auzina, Çağatay Yıldız, Sara Magliacane, Matthias Bethge, Efstratios Gavves

Neural ordinary differential equations (NODEs) have been proven useful for learning non-linear dynamics of arbitrary trajectories.

Multi-View Causal Representation Learning with Partial Observability

1 code implementation7 Nov 2023 Dingling Yao, Danru Xu, Sébastien Lachapelle, Sara Magliacane, Perouz Taslakian, Georg Martius, Julius von Kügelgen, Francesco Locatello

We present a unified framework for studying the identifiability of representations learned from simultaneously observed views, such as different data modalities.

Joint Causal Inference from Multiple Contexts

no code implementations30 Nov 2016 Joris M. Mooij, Sara Magliacane, Tom Claassen

We explain how several well-known causal discovery algorithms can be seen as addressing special cases of the JCI framework, and we also propose novel implementations that extend existing causal discovery methods for purely observational data to the JCI setting.

An Upper Bound for Random Measurement Error in Causal Discovery

no code implementations18 Oct 2018 Tineke Blom, Anna Klimovskaia, Sara Magliacane, Joris M. Mooij

Causal discovery algorithms infer causal relations from data based on several assumptions, including notably the absence of measurement error.

Factored Adaptation for Non-Stationary Reinforcement Learning

no code implementations30 Mar 2022 Fan Feng, Biwei Huang, Kun Zhang, Sara Magliacane

Dealing with non-stationarity in environments (e. g., in the transition dynamics) and objectives (e. g., in the reward functions) is a challenging problem that is crucial in real-world applications of reinforcement learning (RL).
