arXiv:2608. 19380v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While modern autonomous driving systems excel at perception tasks such as object detection and trajectory prediction, they lack the high-level causal reasoning required to interpret traffic accidents.

arXiv:2606. 14892v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: An artificial intelligence must have a model of its environment that is causal, supporting reasoning about interventions and counterfactuals, and also combinatorial, supporting generalization to unseen combinations of objects.

The paper proposes a new framework for automated fault diagnostics in modern vehicles by treating diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) as a high‑dimensional language. It introduces Transformer‑based models for predictive maintenance, scalable causal discovery methods, and a multi‑agent system that automatically generates Boolean error‑pattern rules. The approach aims to replace costly manual grouping of DTCs with scalable, data‑driven techniques.

Safe autonomous driving requires both rapid responses to common high-risk events and deeper reasoning over rare, extreme long-tail scenarios in traffic safety. These scenarios are severely under-represented in naturalistic driving data, and existing trajectory and language-augmented datasets seldom provide high-risk event labels, semantic annotations, and verifiable safety signals.

arXiv:2602. 16481v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Causal discovery seeks to uncover causal relations from data, typically represented as causal graphs, and is essential for predicting the effects of interventions.

arXiv:2602. 20094v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) witness increasing deployment in complex, high-stakes decision-making scenarios, it becomes imperative to ground their reasoning in causality rather than spurious correlations.

ConstructCIE is a manually annotated dataset designed for extracting causal information from OSHA construction accident reports. It employs a hierarchical schema that categorizes accident types, causal factors, sub‑causal factors, and the supporting evidence spans. Experiments with supervised sequence taggers and instruction‑tuned large language models show strong performance on accident‑type prediction and broad causal recovery, yet precise span‑level extraction remains challenging, highlighting the need for better domain grounding and evidence extraction.

The paper introduces Multi-Task Anti-Causal learning (MTAC), a framework that estimates latent causes from observed effects by exploiting both task-invariant and task-specific structural dependencies. MTAC constructs a structural equation model that separates a shared backbone mechanism from task-specific deviations, then uses maximum a posteriori inference to reconstruct causes. Applied to urban event reconstruction—parking violations, abandoned properties, and unsanitary conditions—MTAC outperforms strong baselines on real data from Manhattan and Newark, achieving up to a 33.04% reduction in mean absolute error.
