This paper introduces topological-geometrical metrics to estimate structural causal effects that are missed by traditional mean-based methods, proposing a new concept called topological ignorability.

The paper proposes Test-Time Training for Supervised Causal Learning (TTT-SCL), a novel framework that dynamically generates training data aligned with specific test instances to significantly improve…
The paper proposes graph-coupled causal Bayesian optimization, a method that improves efficiency by sharing information across related interventions through a shared set of causal parameters.
This paper introduces an entropy-based method to generate multiple plausible causal maps (atlases) that accurately reflect the inherent structural ambiguity in complex systems, moving beyond single, o…
The paper formalizes the concept of a causal pathway for rare events, showing that testable implications can be derived solely from this pathway abstraction, simplifying complex causal modeling.
The paper introduces novel compatibility and incompatibility scores to evaluate collections of bivariate causal statements, providing a way to assess causal claims when ground truth is unavailable.

The paper introduces Causal Editing (CODE), a new paradigm that improves knowledge updates in LLMs by grounding fact injection in causal narratives, drastically reducing self-refutation rates.
The paper introduces a quotient-DAG view to accurately estimate unordered slate propensities for off-policy evaluation, solving the nuisance variance and computational gap inherent in standard importa…

The paper theoretically explains that optimizing LLMs solely on outcomes leads to brittle reasoning (Reward-Induced Manifold Collapse) by favoring low-complexity shortcuts, and proposes process-based…
The paper introduces Nested Contextual Causal Bandits (NCCBs) to model multi-timescale sequential decisions and proposes a certified policy optimization method, NCTS, that provides quantifiable risk b…
This paper systematically evaluates the consistency of popular causal discovery benchmarks against real-world scientific literature, revealing significant variability in their accuracy.

This paper proposes a Bayesian framework to enhance membership inference attacks against released statistics by incorporating prior knowledge about the population's attribute dependency structure, out…
The paper develops a structurally justified framework for measuring Quantum Cryptographic Exposure (HNDL) by showing that the compromise probability factorizes into distinct, interacting components ba…
The paper extends modular dynamic Bayesian networks (MDBNs) to model non-Markovian queues, providing the first causal metamodeling technique for such systems with significant speedup.
The paper introduces the Causal Sensitivity Score (CSS), an interventional metric that reveals that standard coverage-based evaluations fail to detect critical responsiveness deficits in clinical LLMs…
The paper introduces a comprehensive framework, Realtime Risk Studio, that operationalizes qualitative risk models (Bowtie diagrams) into formal, probabilistic, and intervention-ready runtime models u…
The paper proposes DA-GC, a certified causal attribution framework that accurately identifies cross-slice attack origins in 6G networks under strict real-time latency constraints by systematically mod…
The paper argues that traditional identity-based reputation mechanisms are structurally inapplicable to language model agents because their mutable, modular nature makes them ontologically dissociativ…
The paper proposes a novel two-stage framework to differentially privatize tables of counts by focusing on preserving the accuracy of the underlying count distribution, introducing the specialized cyc…

The paper introduces Query2Effect, a large-scale benchmark, and a two-step framework to predict causal effect sizes from natural language queries, showing that structured representation significantly…
