The Counterfactual $χ$-GAN

open access: yesCoRR, 2020
Causal inference often relies on the counterfactual framework, which requires that treatment assignment is independent of the outcome, known as strong ignorability. Approaches to enforcing strong ignorability in causal analyses of observational data include weighting and matching methods.

AI‐Assisted Recognition of Actual Ureteral and Pancreatic Injuries in Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery: A Randomized Video Review Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
AI‐generated anatomical highlighting improved surgeons' recognition of actual ureteral injuries during laparoscopic colorectal surgery, including recognition within predefined injury time‐code windows. No significant overall improvement was observed for pancreatic injury, and incorrect adverse‐event judgments did not increase in no‐injury videos. These

When Biology Meets Medicine: A Perspective on Foundation Models

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence, and foundation models in particular, are transforming life sciences and medicine. This perspective reviews biological and medical foundation models across scales, highlighting key challenges in data availability, model evaluation, and architectural design.

Counterfactual Scheming [PDF]

open access: yesMind, 2019
Abstract Mathematics appears to play a genuine explanatory role in science. But how do mathematical explanations work? Recently, a counterfactual approach to mathematical explanation has been suggested. I argue that such a view fails to differentiate the explanatory uses of mathematics within science from the non-explanatory uses.

Talk to Your Data: An Agentic Artificial Intelligence‐Driven Decision‐Support Framework for Prosumer Energy Optimization and Recommendations

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An agentic AI‐driven decision‐support framework for prosumers is proposed, integrating PV generation, load profiling, and multihorizon optimization within a four‐agent architecture. The approach significantly reduces grid dependence, enhances self‐sufficiency and prevents system oversizing.

Comparative Analysis of Model‐Agnostic Explanation Methods in Materials Science

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
To address the critical lack of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) benchmarks in materials science, we present a quantitative and qualitative analysis of six XAI methods applied to molecular fingerprints. Our results reveal significant discrepancies in feature importance rankings, demonstrating that the chosen explanation approach introduces ...

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

The Curse of Free-Will and the Paradox of Inevitable Regret

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2013
The paradox described below aims to clarify the principles by which empirical data are harnessed to guide decision making. It is motivated by the practical question of whether empirical assessments of the effect of treatment on the treated (ETT) can be ...
