Off-Policy Evaluation and Learning for the Future under Non-Stationarity

Published in Proceedings of the 31st ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, 2025

We study the novel problem of future off-policy evaluation (F-OPE) and learning (F-OPL) for estimating and optimizing the future value of policies in non-stationary environments, where distributions vary over time.

Diffusion Model in Causal Inference with Unmeasured Confounders

Published in 2023 IEEE Symposium Series On Computational Intelligence, 2023

We study how to extend the use of the diffusion model to answer the causal question from the observational data under the existence of unmeasured confounders.
