Pentamode materials are a class of materials that are useful for guiding stress. In particular, they have been proposed for acoustic cloaking by guiding stress around objects, and have been physically constructed. A key feature of pentamode materials is that each vertex in the material is the junction of 4 double cone elements.

In this presentation, I will give an overview of the recommender systems (RS) from causal prospective and discuss my team works on the causal recommendation. First, I introduce the potential outcome framework in recommender system. Second, I provide a brief overview for the debiasing strategies. Then I introduce our woks to address the bias in RS from causal perspective. FinallyI discuss some open problem and future direction in recommender systems.
