Units: 12.0 Department: Philosophy Cross-listed: 80-812 Related URLs: http://www.hss.cmu.edu/philosophy This course explores the foundations of causation. It examines how causal claims connect to both probability and to counterfactuals. Under a variety of background assumptions, and a variety of senses of "reliable", we will examine which causal inferences can be made reliably. We will also examine recent developments in statistics and artificial intelligence relating to causal inference.
