Causal inference has been a pivotal challenge across diverse domains such as medicine and economics, demanding a complicated integration of human knowledge, mathematical reasoning, and data mining capabilities. Recent advancements in natural language processing (NLP), particularly with the advent of large language models (LLMs), have introduced promising opportunities for traditional causal inference tasks. This paper reviews recent progress in applying LLMs to causal inference, encompassing various tasks spanning different levels of causation. We summarize the main causal problems and approaches, and present a comparison of their evaluation results in different causal scenarios. Furthermore, we discuss key findings and outline directions for future research, underscoring the potential implications of integrating LLMs in advancing causal inference methodologies.

  1. Reasoning Consensus: Structural Ensembling of LLM Reasoning via Weighted DAG Aggregation

    cs.CL 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Combining multiple LLMs' reasoning traces into weighted DAGs gives an auditable consensus graph that matches self-consistency and modestly improves on majority voting.

  2. Mitigating Hidden Confounding by Progressive Confounder Imputation via Large Language Models

    cs.CL 2025-06 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    ProCI uses LLMs to iteratively generate and impute hidden confounders, then validates them with a conditional independence test to improve treatment effect estimation.

  3. CF-VLM:CounterFactual Vision-Language Fine-tuning

    cs.LG 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    CF-VLM fine-tunes VLMs on counterfactual image-text pairs with three objectives, reporting gains on compositional reasoning benchmarks and modest hallucination reductions.

  4. Deploying AI for Signal Processing education: Selected challenges and intriguing opportunities

    eess.SP 2025-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    AI can be used to generate interactive signal processing courseware, but the paper offers no evidence that students learn better from it.
