pyAgrum.causal documentation¶
Causality in pyAgrum mainly consists in the ability to build a causal model, i.e. a (observational) Bayesian network and a set of latent variables and their relation with observation variables and in the abilidy to compute using do-calculus the causal impact in such a model.
Causality is a set of pure python3 scripts based on pyAgrum’s tools.
Note
As it can be seen in the figure above, pyAgrum.causal module uses a LaTeX special arrow (\(\hookrightarrow\)) to compactly represent an intervention. If you prefer the classical “do” notation, you can change this behavior by using:
gum.config[“causal”,”latex_do_prefix”]=”do(” gum.config[“causal”,”latex_do_suffix”]=”)”
Tutorial
Some implemented examples from the book of Why from Judea Pearl and Dana Mackenzie.
