A directed acyclic graph (DAG) provides valuable prior knowledge that is often discarded in regression tasks in machine learning. We show that the independences arising from the presence of collider structures in DAGs provide meaningful…
Graph-structured data ubiquitously appears in science and engineering. Graph neural networks (GNNs) are designed to exploit the relational inductive bias exhibited in graphs; they have been shown to outperform other forms of neural networks…

In the DAG Edge Deletion problem, we are given an edge-weighted directed acyclic graph and a parameter $k$, and the goal is to delete the minimum weight set of edges so that the resulting graph has no paths of length $k$. This problem,…
Finding the origin of short phrases propagating through the web has been formalized by Leskovec et al. [ACM SIGKDD 2009] as DAG Partitioning: given an arc-weighted directed acyclic graph on $n$ vertices and $m$ arcs, delete arcs with total…
Directed acyclic graph (DAG) models, also called Bayesian networks, impose conditional independence constraints on a multivariate probability distribution, and are widely used in probabilistic reasoning, machine learning and causal…
Estimating the structure of Bayesian networks as directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) from observational data is a fundamental challenge, particularly in causal discovery. Bayesian approaches excel by quantifying uncertainty and addressing…
Trees with many leaves have applications on broadcasting, which is a method in networks for transferring a message to all recipients simultaneously. Internal nodes of a broadcasting tree require more expensive technology, because they have…
Recovering underlying Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) structures from observational data is highly challenging due to the combinatorial nature of the DAG-constrained optimization problem. Recently, DAG learning has been cast as a continuous…
