Abstract

 In this talk, I will discuss recent work on reasoning and learning with soft interventions, including the problem of identification, extrapolation/transportability, and structural learning. I will also briefly discuss a new calculus, which generalizes the do-calculus, as well as algorithmic and graphical conditions.
