CausalAI

Agentic AI performing 5-Whys root cause analysis and barrier extraction on incident reports.

Research question

Incident reports often contain insufficient detail for root cause analysis. Investigators manually perform barrier extraction and 5-Whys analysis, a process that is time-consuming and inconsistent across analysts.

Research approach

An agentic pipeline extracts barriers and contributing factors from the incident text, then iteratively applies 5-Whys reasoning. The agent asks the user targeted clarifying questions when evidence is insufficient.
