过程图上的因果推断（一）：结构方程过程表示AI 解读

When dealing with time series data, causal inference methods often employ structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) processes to model time-evolving random systems. In this work, we rephrase recursive SVAR processes with possible latent component processes as a linear Structural Causal Model (SCM) of stochastic processes on a simple causal graph, the process graph, that models every process as a single node. Using this reformulation, we generalise Wright's well-known path-rule…

过程图上的因果推断（二）：因果结构与效应识别AI 解读

A structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) process is a linear causal model for variables that evolve over a discrete set of time points and between which there may be lagged and instantaneous effects. The qualitative causal structure of an SVAR process can be represented by its finite and directed process graph, in which a directed link connects two processes whenever there is a lagged or instantaneous effect between them. At the process graph level, the causal structure of…

线性过程频域因果效应估计的渐近不确定性AI 解读

Structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) processes are commonly used time series models to identify and quantify causal interactions between dynamically interacting processes from observational data. The causal relationships between these processes can be effectively represented by a finite directed process graph - a graph that connects two processes whenever there is a direct delayed or simultaneous effect between them. Recent research has introduced a framework for…

时间模式的因果推断AI 解读

Complex dynamical systems are prevalent in many scientific disciplines. In the analysis of such systems two aspects are of particular interest: 1) the temporal patterns along which they evolve and 2) the underlying causal mechanisms. Time-series representations like discrete Fourier and wavelet transforms have been widely applied in order to obtain insights on the temporal structure of complex dynamical systems. Questions of cause and effect can be formalized in the causal…
