Causal Inference symposium

Curious about Causality?

Causality is increasingly a part of AI, data science, robotics, and more, but it is not always clear how we can learn causality from data. Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute (HDSI) will be hosting a Causal Inference symposium featuring leading HDSI Faculty who will be providing an introductory overview on these methods, followed by domain-specific talks and open discussion.

We welcome all UCSD faculty, graduate students, HDSI industry partners, and guests to join us.
