Structure Learning

Structure learning focuses on automatically discovering the underlying relationships between variables in data, often represented as graphs, to build probabilistic models. Current research emphasizes developing robust and scalable algorithms, including those based on mutual information, optimal transport, and graph neural networks, to address challenges like handling missing data, nonlinearity, and high dimensionality. These advancements are crucial for improving the accuracy and efficiency of causal discovery, enabling better understanding of complex systems in diverse fields such as drug discovery, security, and image-text matching. Furthermore, integrating human knowledge and addressing the limitations of cross-validation are active areas of investigation.
