Spatial Deconfounder: Interference-Aware Deconfounding for Spatial Causal Inference

arXiv:2510. 08762v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Causal inference in spatial domains faces two intertwined challenges: (1) unmeasured spatial factors, such as weather, air pollution, or mobility, that confound treatment and outcome, and (2) interference from nearby treatments that violate standard no-interference assumptions.

Transportable Causal Effect Estimation across Networks under Interference

The paper introduces TranCE, a doubly‑robust algorithm for estimating causal effects when an intervention is applied to one network but the interest lies in another, differing network. By extending selection diagrams to capture covariate and structural network shifts, the authors derive transport formulas for direct, spillover, and total effects, and validate the method on semi‑synthetic social‑network benchmarks and a real weather‑insurance field experiment.

AI for Social Good: An Investigation of the Causal Relationship Between Environmental Regulations and Their Effects on Air Pollution in London, UK

arXiv:2606. 15257v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Air pollution regulation is central to urban public health governance, but estimating its effects is difficult because policies are implemented non-randomly and pollution trajectories are shaped by meteorology, socioeconomic change, temporal trends, and overlapping interventions.
