New causal discovery framework tackles unobserved variables

Researchers have developed a new framework called Causal Additive Models to address causal discovery challenges when unobserved variables or paths exist. The proposed method establishes conditions for identifying causal relationships even with hidden backdoor or causal paths. A novel search algorithm based on these conditions has been introduced and demonstrated to perform competitively with existing state-of-the-art techniques. AI

    Causal Additive Models with Unobserved Causal Paths and Backdoor Paths

    arXiv:2502.07646v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Causal additive models provide a tractable yet expressive framework for causal discovery in the presence of hidden variables. When unobserved backdoor or causal paths exist between two variables, their causal relationship …
