On inferential equivalence classes of causal models
因果模型的推断等价类
Causal models in the same Markov equivalence class are, in the absence of strong assumptions, statistically indistinguishable at any sample size. For modest sample sizes there is also the possibility that several such classes are compatible with the data, pointing to a confidence set of causal models as the appropriate presentation of evidence. Non-identifiability of Gaussian causal models from the same Markov equivalence class corresponds to a plurality of…
