Discovering Cyclic Causal Models by Independent Components Analysis
We generalize Shimizu et al's (2006) ICA-based approach for discovering linear non-Gaussian acyclic (LiNGAM) Structural Equation Models (SEMs) from causally sufficient, conti...

Nonlinear independent component analysis with minimal nonlinear distortion
Nonlinear ICA may not result in nonlinear blind source separation, since solutions to nonlinear ICA are highly non-unique. In practice, the nonlinearity in the data generation pro...

Discovery of Linear Non-Gaussian Acyclic Models in the Presence of Latent Classes
Abstract. An effective way to examine causality is to conduct an experiment with random assignment. However, in many cases it is impossible or too expensive to perform controlled ...

A Linear Non-Gaussian Acyclic Model for Causal Discovery
In recent years, several methods have been proposed for the discovery of causal structure from non-experimental data. Such methods make various assumptions on the data generating ...

Causality Discovery with Additive Disturbances: An Information-Theoretical Perspective
We consider causally sufficient acyclic causal models in which the relationship among the variables is nonlinear while disturbances have linear effects, and show that three princi...
