Acceptance-based telephone support around the time of transition to secondary progressive multiple sclerosis
Interactive machine teaching
Modern systems can augment people’s capabilities by using machine-learned models to surface intelligent behaviors. Unfortunately, building these models remains challenging and beyond the reach of non-machine learning experts. We describe interactive machine teaching (IMT) and its potential to simplify the creation of machine-learned models. One of the key characteristics of IMT is its iterative process in which the human-in-the-loop takes the rol…
The Tetrad Project
The statistical community has brought logical rigor and mathematical precision to the problem of using data to make inferences about a model's parameter values. The TETRAD project, and related work in computer science and statistics, aims to apply those standards to the problem of using data and background knowledge to make inferences about a model's specification. We begin by drawing the analogy between parameter estimation and model specificati…
Reply to Comments
We will respond to our commentators individually, but the order of our responses follows naturally from the issues they bring up. Judea Pearl describes SEM's unfortunate retreat from the clear causal semantics articulated by Sewall Wright (1921) and later by Haavelmo (1943) to the algebraic interpretation preferred more recently by econometricians. We agree with Pearl about the history and also the problem, namely that the algebraic interpretatio…
Using Path Diagrams as a Structural Equation Modeling Tool
A linear structural equation model (SEM) without free parameters has two parts: a probability distribution and an associated path diagram corresponding to the causal relations among variables specified by the structural equations and the correlations among the error terms. This article shows how path diagrams can be used to solve a number of important problems in structural equation modeling; for example, How much do sample data underdetermine th…
Conditioning and Intervening
We consider the dispute between causal decision theorists and evidential decision theorists over Newcomb-like problems. We introduce a framework relating causation and directed graphs developed by Spirtes et al. (1993) and evaluate several arguments in this context. We argue that much of the debate between the two camps is misplaced; the disputes turn on the distinction between conditioning on an event E as against conditioning on an event I whic…
