arXiv:2606. 08196v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study causal discovery from observational data when some variables are hidden and the data-generating process follows a location-scale noise model (LSNM).
arXiv:2608. 03868v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Causal Discovery (CD) from observational data faces two fundamental challenges.
arXiv:2607. 11816v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal discovery algorithms learn a network that describes the causal dependencies among random variables.
The paper addresses causal discovery in Directed Acyclic Graphs where nodes are either ordinal (modeled with an ordered logit) or follow a one‑parameter exponential family distribution. It proves that the direction of edges between such nodes is identifiable for generic parameter values, extending prior Ordinal‑Poisson results. The authors also propose a score‑based exhaustive search and a masked continuous optimization method using DAGMA, and demonstrate through simulations that these approaches recover orientations that are otherwise unidentifiable under classical structural equation models.
arXiv:2601. 16249v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning DAG structures from purely observational data remains a long-standing challenge across scientific domains.
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.
