MiSoC training course: An introduction to machine learning for causal analysis using observational data
- Date and time
- Starts: Ends:
- Location
- Building 39, University of Southampton, Highfield, Southampton, Hants
- Presented by
- Professor Paul Clarke and Professor Spyros Samothrakis
This one-day workshop will
– Introduce the basic principles of causal modelling (potential outcomes, graphs, causal effects) while emphasising the key role of design and assumptions in obtaining robust estimates.
– Introduce the basic principles of machine learning and the use of machine learning methods to do causal inference (e.g. methods stemming from domain adaptation and propensity scores).
– Show how to implement these techniques for causal analysis and interpret the results in illustrative examples.
