Causal Discovery and Causal Effect Identification
Understanding how changes in an environment affect outcomes is at the core of causal inference. Unlike standard prediction tasks that capture associations between variables, causal inference aims to reveal what happens when we intervene in a system.

Applying the adjustment set to estimate causal effect of data based on the causal graph model
The purpose of this paper was to introduce the five limitations of the PROC CAUSALGRAPH procedure and estimate the causal effect of the data by using the adjustment set based on the causal graph model.

Quantifying Causal Path-Specific Importance in Structural Causal Model
Path-specific effect analysis is a powerful tool in causal inference. This paper provides a definition of causal counterfactual path-specific importance score for the structural causal model (SCM). Different from existing path-specific effect definitions,

Causality Is an Effect, II [PDF]
Causality follows the thermodynamic arrow of time, where the latter is defined by the direction of entropy increase. After a brief review of an earlier version of this article, rooted in classical mechanics, we give a quantum generalization of the results. The quantum proofs are limited to a gas of Gaussian wave packets.

Local Causal Discovery for Estimating Causal Effects
Even when the causal graph underlying our data is unknown, we can use observational data to narrow down the possible values that an average treatment effect (ATE) can take by (1) identifying the graph up to a Markov equivalence class; and (2) estimating that ATE for each graph in the class.
