Description
Join us for the IBM Research workshop on Bridging Causal Inference, Reinforcement Learning and Transfer Learning, scheduled during AI Research Week in Cambridge, Massachusetts!
Causal inference is an increasingly popular research direction, focused on discovering causal relations from data and exploiting them to predict the effect of actions/interventions in a system. Recently, there have been exciting new works pointing at connections between causal inference and two other important fields of machine learning: reinforcement learning and transfer learning. Although there seems to be a natural connection between these fields, the different research communities are still separate, a situation complicated by the different terminologies and assumptions.
In this workshop we will bring together these different communities in the context of causal inference. We will include speakers from academia and industry that have been pioneering research in these intersections. We will also have a poster session highlighting the work done at IBM and from universities in the Boston Area
This workshop is part of the IBM Research AI Week. Please check the full schedule of events for AI Week and register for any of the other open workshops!
