Estimation of causal effects using linear non-Gaussian causal models with hidden variables
The task of estimating causal effects from non-experimental data is notoriously difficult and unreliable. Nevertheless, precisely such estimates are commonly required in many fiel...

Estimation of linear, non-gaussian causal models in the presence of confounding latent variables
The estimation of linear causal models (also known as structural equation models) from data is a well-known problem which has received much attention in the past. Most previous wo...

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 ...

Pairwise Measures of Causal Direction in Linear Non-Gaussian Acyclic Models
We present new measures of the causal direction between two non-gaussian random variables. They are based on the likelihood ratio under the linear non-gaussian acyclic model (LiNG...

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 ...
