New methods for causal inference incorporate expert knowledge

Researchers have developed new methods for incorporating expert knowledge into causal inference models. The work focuses on restricting Markov equivalence classes of maximal ancestral graphs (MAGs) to those that include specific edge marks, referred to as expert or orientation knowledge. This restriction can be uniquely represented by a restricted essential ancestral graph, and the paper introduces new graphical orientation rules and an algorithm for this process, generalizing previous work to settings with latent confounding.

    Towards Complete Causal Explanation with Expert Knowledge

    arXiv:2407.07338v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the problem of restricting a Markov equivalence class of maximal ancestral graphs (MAGs) to only those MAGs that contain certain edge marks, which we refer to as expert or orientation knowledge. Such a restriction of th…
