Advancing causal inference for next-generation AI
Causal inference plays a critical role in the development of next-generation artificial intelligence systems. Unlike purely data-driven approaches that rely on pattern recognition, causal methods enable AI systems to reason about why events occur. This capability is essential for building AI that is more trustworthy, explainable, and robust when adapting to new or changing environments.
The special issue curated by Dr. Djurić brings together leading contributions that address fundamental challenges in causal modeling, learning, and inference. These advances are expected to influence a wide range of applications, including machine learning, decision-making systems, and data-driven scientific discovery.
