Researchers have developed a new method for identifying probabilistic causes in Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) that offers probabilistic guarantees. This approach addresses limitations in existing methods by focusing on learning from transition samples rather than relying on pre-calculated reachability probabilities, which are often unavailable in unknown MDPs. The proposed technique uses a restart-based modification to simplify cause identification and includes sample-complexity bounds and an anytime algorithm for progressive classification of states. AI
