Researchers have developed a method to identify continuous-time latent dynamics in stochastic differential equation (SDE) models by analyzing shifts in diffusion covariance. This approach addresses a gap in causal representation learning for time series, where discrete-time models have yielded strong identifiability results, but continuous-time models have lagged. The proposed technique uses two distinct diffusion regimes to identify latent coordinates, even without sparsity assumptions on the drift, and can also recover the instantaneous drift-Jacobian causal graph. Experiments on synthetic data and real-world sensor trajectories from the Hardanger Bridge demonstrate the effectiveness of this method. AI
