D'ya like DAGs? A Survey on Structure Learning and Causal Discovery
Causal reasoning is a crucial part of science and human intelligence. In
order to discover causal relationships from data, we need structure discovery
methods. We provide a review of background theory and a survey of methods for
structure discovery. We primarily focus on modern, continuous optimization
methods, and provide reference to further resources such as benchmark datasets
and software packages. Finally, we discuss the assumptive leap required to take
us from structure to causality.Comment: 35 page
