Analysis of causal effects between continuous-valued variables typically uses either autoregressive models or structural equation models with instantaneous effects. Estimation of ...
In a variety of disciplines such as social sciences, psychology, medicine and economics, the recorded data are considered to be noisy measurements of latent variables connected by...
The task of estimating causal effects from non-experimental data is notoriously difficult and unreliable. Nevertheless, precisely such estimates are commonly required in many fiel...

The estimation of linear causal models (also known as structural equation models) from data is a well-known problem which has received much attention in the past. Most previous wo...

Structural equation models have been widely used to study causal relationships between continuous variables. Recently, a non-Gaussian method called LiNGAM was proposed to discover ...
Abstract. We discuss causal structure learning based on linear structural equation models. Conventional learning methods most often assume Gaussianity and create many indistinguish...
We generalize Shimizu et al's (2006) ICA-based approach for discovering linear non-Gaussian acyclic (LiNGAM) Structural Equation Models (SEMs) from causally sufficient, conti...
