摘要
Discovering high-level causal relations from low-level data is an important and challenging prob- lem that comes up frequently in the natural and 社會 sciences. In a series of papers, Chalupka et al. (2015, 2016a, 2016b, 2017) develop a procedure for causal feature learning (CFL) in an effort to automate this task. We argue that CFL does not recommend coarsening in cases where pragmatic considerations rule in favor of it, and recommends coarsening in cases where pragmatic consider- ations rule against it. We propose a new technique, pragmatic causal feature learning (PCFL), which extends the original CFL algorithm in useful and intuitive ways. We show that PCFL has the same attractive measure-theoretic properties as the original CFL algorithm. We compare the performance of both methods throu
