Hi all,

I would like to announce the NeurIPS 2022 Workshop on Causal Machine Learning for Real-World Impact (CML4Impact) and invite submissions of papers.

On behalf of the organisers,

Nick

Email: cml.for...@gmail.com


Important Dates

  • Submission Deadline: September 30th, 2022 Anywhere on Earth (AoE)

  • Acceptance Notifications: October 22nd, 2022

  • Workshop event: December 2nd, 2022, In-person in New Orleans, LA, USA.

Call for papers:

The 2022 NeurIPS Workshop on Causal Machine Learning for Real-World Impact is calling for contributions combining causality and machine learning, with a view on using these methods to solve real-world problems with practical impact. We invite researchers to submit position papers about real-world causal problems, methodological contributions applying machine learning to solve causal questions, applications of these methods to specific real-world problems, as well as tools to ease the applications by practitioners. Potential interest areas include but are not limited to the following areas:

  • identifying causal structures in data

  • estimating causal effects

  • causal attribution

  • causal decision making

  • causal applications in education, healthcare, business decision-making, etc.

  • tools to ease application of causal machine learning


We invite submissions that either address new problems and provide insights or present progress on established problems. The workshop includes a poster session giving the opportunity to present novel ideas and ongoing projects. Outstanding submissions will be invited for spotlight presentations and qualify for a best paper award. Additionally, all authors are asked to indicate whether they want to be considered for a travel award. The awards are sponsored by Eedi (https://eedi.com/)

Submission Instructions

  • Submissions should be no more than 6 pages, excluding references and supplementary material. We ask authors to use the supplementary material only for minor details that do not fit in the main paper. We also welcome short papers (~3 pages) that present ongoing work, discuss open problems and challenges, or introduce new tools that ease the use of causal machine learning.

  • Papers should use this style template and be submitted through OpenReview.
