We consider the problem of structure learning for bow-free acyclic path diagrams (BAPs). BAPs can be viewed as a generalization of linear Gaussian DAG models that allow for certain hidden variables. We present a first method for this problem using a greedy score-based search algorithm. We also prove some necessary and …
Efficient algorithms decide algebraic constraints of causal graphs.
We solve structure learning for cyclic linear causal models using observational data.
We improve robust parameter estimation in causal models from observational data.
New method learns graph structure with hidden causes from observational data.
New method discovers causal relationships in confounded systems.
We consider the numerical stability of the parameter recovery problem in Linear Structural Equation Model ($\LSEM$) of causal inference. A long line of work starting from Wright (1920) has focused on understanding which sub-classes of $\LSEM$ allow for efficient parameter recovery. Despite decades of study, this questi…
