Identifiability of causal effects in a multi-agent causal model

IEEE/WIC International Conference on Intelligent Agent Technology, 2003. IAT 2003., 2004
This paper is a first step to extending Judea Pearl's work on identification of causal effects to a multi-agent context. We introduce multi-agent causal models consisting of a collection of agents each having access to a non-disjoint subset of the variables constituting the domain.

On Effective Causal Learning

2014
We have developed a framework for identifying causal relationships between events which are effective in the sense that they can be put to practical use, without regard to what the “true” causes really are. A rapid causal learning process is devised for temporally correlated events that can be observed proximally which is sufficient for the learning of

Estimating the causal effects of treatment

Epidemiologia e Psichiatria Sociale, 2002
SUMMARYObjective – To provide a relatively non-technical review of recent statistical research on the analysis and interpretation of the results of randomised controlled trials in which there are possibly all three of the following types of protocol violation: non-adherence to allocated treatment, contamination (that is, patients receiving treatments ...

The Causal Effects of Expected Depreciations

Working paper (Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland)
We estimate the causal effects of a shift in the expected future exchange rate of a local currency against the US dollar on a representative sample of firms in an open economy. We survey a nationally representative sample of firms and provide the one-year-ahead nominal exchange rate forecast published by the local central bank to a random sub-sample of

Causal Binding of Actions to Their Effects

Psychological Science, 2009
According to widely held views in cognitive science harking back to David Hume, causality cannot be perceived directly, but instead is inferred from patterns of sensory experience, and the quality of these inferences is determined by perceivable quantities such as contingency and contiguity.

Causal effects of education on marriage

Education Economics
Many nations have experienced both rising education levels and declining marriage rates. However, cross-sectional comparisons within countries often indicate that more highly educated individuals are more likely to be married. Economic theory suggests ambiguous causal effects of education on marriage.

Granger-Causality and Policy Effectiveness

Economica, 1984
It is generally recognized that, if a set of monetary and fiscal policy variables Granger-cause1 real economic variables, this does not imply that alternative deterministic rules for determining the values of these policy instruments will alter the joint density function of the real variables.2 It has, however, also been asserted that (letting X denote

Two metamodels of causal effects

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, 1991
Two metamodels, termed Model S and Model V, are proposed for definition, measurement, and generalization of quantitative causal effects. The effect is defined as a part change in score in Model S and as a part change in variance in Model V. Two additional changes, total and remainder change, are defined.
