In my talk I will talk about our lab’s efforts to use machine learning as a component of more traditional quasi-experimental tec hniques. I will also discuss meta-learning approaches to causal inference\ , approaches where the estimators themselves are learned. I will lament th e relative lack of interactions between the various subfields of the causa l inference space.\n DTSTART:20230109T170000Z DTEND:20230109T180000Z SUMMARY:QLS Seminar Series - Konrad Kording URL:/qls/channels/event/qls-seminar-series-konrad-kord ing-353228 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
