From Local to Cluster: A Unified Framework for Causal Discovery with Latent Variables
arXiv:2604. 22416v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Latent variables pose a fundamental obstacle to both causal discovery and inference.
Hierarchical Clustering As a Novel Solution to the Notorious Multicollinearity Problem in Observational Causal Inference
arXiv:2606. 30992v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multicollinearity is a long lasting challenge in observational causal inference, especially in regressions -- highly correlated independent variables make it hard to isolate their individual impacts on outcomes of interest.

Local Causal Structure Learning in the Presence of Latent Variables and Selection Bias
Discovering the direct causes and effects of a target variable from observational data is a fundamental problem in causal discovery, with broad applications in domains such as gene regulatory analysis and biomedical research. Existing causal discovery methods either learn a global causal structure, which incurs substantial computational cost, or assume the absence of latent variables and selection bias, assumptions that are often violated in real-world settings.
