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:2401. 04890v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This work introduces a novel principle for disentanglement we call mechanism sparsity regularization, which applies when the latent factors of interest depend sparsely on observed auxiliary variables and/or past latent factors.

arXiv:2606. 19594v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal abstractions formalize when a high-level structural causal model (SCM) captures the interventional behavior of a lower-level SCM.

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:2607. 05984v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recovering the exact directed acyclic graph (DAG) in linear non-Gaussian acyclic models with latent confounders (LvLiNGAM) remains a challenging problem.

arXiv:2509. 01916v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Causal disentanglement from soft interventions is identifiable under the assumptions of linear interventional faithfulness and availability of both observational and interventional data.

Recovering the exact directed acyclic graph (DAG) in linear non-Gaussian acyclic models with latent confounders (LvLiNGAM) remains a challenging problem. Although LvLiNGAM is identifiable only up to an observational equivalence class, each equivalence class is characterized by a unique sparsest DAG.
arXiv:2608. 19831v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal Bayesian networks (CBNs) and structural causal models (SCMs) are the dominant frameworks for graphical causal reasoning, but they cannot adequately represent all real-world causal systems.
