arXiv:2608. 11156v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conditional Independence (CI) tests are the statistical engine of constraint-based causal discovery: in algorithms such as PC (Peter-Clark) and FCI (Fast Causal Inference), skeleton pruning and key orientations follow directly from CI decisions.

arXiv:2607. 11510v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal discovery from observational tabular data remains fundamentally challenging, primarily due to the heterogeneity of underlying causal mechanisms and the high-dimensional combinatorial search space of Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs).

arXiv:2602. 01135v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autoregressive models trained via next-token prediction implicitly learn the conditional independence structure of their data-generating process.

arXiv:2607. 11508v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Causal discovery, the process of recovering underlying causal structures from observational data, is a fundamental pursuit across scientific disciplines.

arXiv:2606. 17516v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Causal discovery from observational data remains challenging due to the need to recover directed structure and latent confounding without interventions.

arXiv:2504. 12594v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Conditional independence testing is a critical component of feature screening, invariant statistical models, and causal discovery.

arXiv:2512. 19510v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Conditional independence (CI) is central to causal inference, feature selection, and graphical modeling, yet it is untestable in many settings without additional assumptions.

arXiv:2607. 11816v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal discovery algorithms learn a network that describes the causal dependencies among random variables.

arXiv:2606. 23880v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: From climate teleconnections to gene regulation, modern time-series datasets encompass tens or hundreds of interacting variables, making causal discovery increasingly challenging.

arXiv:2607. 04133v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal discovery with nonlinear mechanisms and latent confounders remains challenging.

arXiv:2511. 14441v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: To distinguish Markov equivalent graphs in causal discovery, it is necessary to restrict the structural causal model.

arXiv:2602. 14972v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Estimating causal quantities traditionally relies on bespoke estimators tailored to specific assumptions.
