| Research Type | Experimental | Experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate that our approach significantly outperforms various baselines on instance label prediction and out-of-distribution generalization tasks. In this section, we first evaluate the instance label prediction performances of Causal MIL against MIL baselines... Then, we evaluate the out-of-distribution generalization ability of Causal MIL by comparing with supervised learning algorithms... |
