Relational Causal Model implementation in Python

Primary LanguagePython

Relational Causal Model and Tools

This library provides an up-to-date implementation of Relational Causal Model [1,2,3,4], which provides classes for presenting relational schema, skeleton, and ground graphs. RpCD, a sound and (only) complete structure learning algorithm [4] is developed with theoretical evaluation in mind. To learn a causal structure from real data, please check out a separate library RRCD, robust relational causal discovery [5], which is dependent on this library developed by the same author.
