LADDER is proposed, a fixed-model DG pipeline that learns causal/style representations, freezes the encoders, fits source-specific classifiers, and uses an unlabeled target-domain covariate set only at inference to compute weights over these fixed classifiers, with no target labels or model-state updates.
This work introduces Counterfactual Harness Search and Evolution (CHASE), which casts harness evolution as constraint generation over valid counterfactual benchmarks and formalizes an ideal shortcut-neutralized benchmark $B_0$ and establishes theoretical guarantees linking finite counterfactual archives to $B_0$ and ch...

Domain generalization (DG) aims to learn from multiple source domains and generalize to unseen target domains. Most DG methods pursue invariance: they seek a causal representation whose prediction rule is invariant across domains. This principle is effective when the causal mechanism is stable, but becomes restrictive...
