算法化的句法因果识别
- 研究问题
- 能否将依赖经典概率论的因果识别推广到数据库、程序和分布式系统等场景，并清晰区分因果模型的句法与语义？
- 方法与思路
- 作者以对称幺半范畴替代经典概率基础，结合非参数 ADMG 结构和代数签名，将基于 fixing 的 ID 算法转写为句法操作。
- 材料陈述的贡献
- 摘要称该框架可给出一般因果识别的纯句法算法描述，推导后门与前门调整的句法对应形式，并展示较复杂模型的应用。
- 阅读关注点
- 应核对范畴公理如何表达干预、句法操作如何对应识别步骤，以及在不同语义实现中这些操作获得何种有效性保证。
- 阅读边界
- 这是 arXiv 预印本，同行评审和期刊接收未经核实。摘要未详述公理及算法保证，不能据此认定任意程序的因果效应均可识别。
原文摘要
Causal identification in causal Bayes nets (CBNs) is an important tool in causal inference allowing the derivation of interventional distributions from observational distributions where this is possible in principle. However, most existing formulations of causal identification using techniques such as d-separation and do-calculus are expressed within the mathematical language of classical probability theory on CBNs. However, there are many causal settings where probability theory and hence current causal identification techniques are inapplicable such as relational databases, dataflow programs such as hardware description languages, distributed systems and most modern machine learning algorithms. We show that this restriction can be lifted by replacing the use of classical probability theory with the alternative axiomatic foundation of symmetric monoidal categories. In this alternative axiomatization, we show how an unambiguous and clean distinction can be drawn between the general syntax of causal models and any specific semantic implementation of that causal model. This allows a purely syntactic algorithmic description of general causal identification by a translation of recent formulations of the general ID algorithm through fixing. Our description is given entirely in terms of the non-parametric ADMG structure specifying a causal model and the algebraic signature of the corresponding monoidal category, to which a sequence of manipulations is then applied so as to arrive at a modified monoidal category in which the desired, purely syntactic interventional causal model, is obtained. We use this idea to derive purely syntactic analogues of classical back-door and front-door causal adjustment, and illustrate an application to a more complex causal model.
