• A theory of independent mechanisms for extrapolation in generative models (2020, background): “IM reflects a foundational aspect of causality, related to concepts in several fields, such as superex-ogeneity in economics (Engle, Hendry, and Richard 1983), the general concept of invariance in philosophy (Woodward 2003) and modularity .”
• Behind Distribution Shift: Mining Driving Forces of Changes and Causal Arrows (2017, positive): “Problem 2, as a sub-problem of causal discovery, exploits a generalized notion of the invariance property [10] or the exogeneity property [2], [13] of causal systems: if there is no nonstationary confounder for Vi and Vj , then the causal mechanisms, represented by the conditional distributions P (V”
• Causal Discovery and Forecasting in Nonstationary Environments with State-Space Models (2019, background): “…postulated that if there is no confounder, the marginal distribution P (cause) and the conditional distribution P (effect|cause) represent independent mechanisms of nature (Pearl, 2000; Janzing & Schölkopf, 2010), which is related to the exogeneity notion (Engle et al., 1983; Zhang et al., 2015b).”
