Causal Information Approach to Partial Conditioning in Multivariate Data Sets
When evaluating causal influence from one time series to another in a multivariate data set it is necessary to take into account the conditioning effect of the other variables. In the presence of many variables and possibly of a reduced number of samples, full conditioning can lead to computational and numerical problems. In this paper, we address the problem of partial conditioning to a limite...
متن کاملCausal Inference on Multivariate Mixed Type Data
Given data over the joint distribution of two univariate or multivariate random variables X and Y of mixed or single type data, we consider the problem of inferring the most likely causal direction between X and Y . We take an information theoretic approach, from which it follows that rst describing the data over cause and then that of eect given cause is shorter than the reverse direction. F...
متن کاملInformation-geometric approach to inferring causal directions
While conventional approaches to causal inference are mainly based on conditional (in)dependences, recent methods also account for the shape of (conditional) distributions. The idea is that the causal hypothesis “X causes Y ” imposes that the marginal distribution PX and the conditional distribution PY |X represent independent mechanisms of nature. Recently it has been postulated that the short...
متن کاملa new approach to credibility premium for zero-inflated poisson models for panel data
هدف اصلی از این تحقیق به دست آوردن و مقایسه حق بیمه باورمندی در مدل های شمارشی گزارش نشده برای داده های طولی می باشد. در این تحقیق حق بیمه های پبش گویی بر اساس توابع ضرر مربع خطا و نمایی محاسبه شده و با هم مقایسه می شود. تمایل به گرفتن پاداش و جایزه یکی از دلایل مهم برای گزارش ندادن تصادفات می باشد و افراد برای استفاده از تخفیف اغلب از گزارش تصادفات با هزینه پائین خودداری می کنند، در این تحقیق ...
15 صفحه اولLearning causal networks with latent variables from multivariate information in genomic data
Learning causal networks from large-scale genomic data remains challenging in absence of time series or controlled perturbation experiments. We report an information- theoretic method which learns a large class of causal or non-causal graphical models from purely observational data, while including the effects of unobserved latent variables, commonly found in many genomic datasets. Starting fro...
