Workshop on "Causal Inference for Engineers"

Held in conjunction with ACM SIGMETRICS (Part of ACM FCRC)

June 19th, 2023 -- Orlando, Florida, USA

Room: Magnolia 16

Zoom Link: https://mit.zoom.us/j/95444390200

Workshop organizers: Alberto Abadie (MIT), Anish Agarwal (Columbia), Devavrat Shah (MIT)

Overview

The focus of the workshop is to introduce core concepts of causal inference to a broad engineering audience and how it can help lead to better modeling, algorithms, architecture design, and performance analysis. Thus, enabling better decision-making in core engineering systems. The audience will be a mix of researchers across engineering disciplines.

As part of the workshop, we will be accepting short papers that are broadly at the intersection of causal inference, engineering, and operations research. This will be non-archival and accepted papers will be presented as posters. Papers should be submitted via the following google form. Authors are asked to submit extended abstracts that are at most 4-pages in length. Please use the standard PER format (http://www.sigmetrics.org/sig-alternate-per.cls). There will also be a poster session for accepted papers.

If there are any questions, please contact Anish Agarwal (first_name.last_name@gmail.com).
