March 19, 2015 Version 2.0-10 Date 2015-03-18 Author Diego Colombo, Alain Hauser, Markus Kalisch, Martin Maechler Maintainer Markus Kalisch Title Methods for Graphical Models and Causal Inference Description Functions for causal structure learning and causal inference using graphical models. The main algorithms for causal structure learning are PC (for observational data without hidden variables), FCI and RFCI (for observational data with hidden variables), and GIES (for a mix of data from observational studies (i.e. observational data) and data from experiments involving interventions (i.e. interventional data) without hidden variables). For causal inference the IDA algorithm and the generalized backdoor criterion is implemented.

متن کاملOn Measurement Bias in Causal Inference
This paper addresses the problem of measurement errors in causal inference and highlights several algebraic and graphical methods for eliminating systematic bias induced by such errors. In particulars, the paper discusses the control of partially observable confounders in parametric and non parametric models and the computational problem of obtaining biasfree effect estimates in such models.
متن کاملGraphical models, causal inference, and econometric models
A graphical model is a graph that represents a set of conditional independence relations among the vertices (random variables). The graph is often given a causal interpretation as well. I describe how graphical causal models can be used in an algorithm for constructing partial information about causal graphs from observational data that is reliable in the large sample limit, even when some of t...
متن کاملCausal Graphical Models in Systems Genetics: a Unified Framework for Joint Inference of Causal Network and Genetic Architecture for Correlated Phenotypes1
Causal inference approaches in systems genetics exploit quantitative trait loci (QTL) genotypes to infer causal relationships among phenotypes. The genetic architecture of each phenotype may be complex, and poorly estimated genetic architectures may compromise the inference of causal relationships among phenotypes. Existing methods assume QTLs are known or inferred without regard to the phenoty...
