Probabilistic Matching: Causal Inference under Measurement Errors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The abundance of data produced daily from large variety of sources has boosted the need of novel approaches on causal inference analysis from observational data. Observational data often contain noisy or missing entries.

Multisensory causal inference in the brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
At any given moment, our brain processes multiple inputs from its different sensory modalities (vision, hearing, touch, etc.). In deciphering this array of sensory information, the brain has to solve two problems: (1) which of the inputs originate from ...

FAST RESTRICTED CAUSAL INFERENCE [PDF]

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2000
Hidden variables are well known sources of disturbance when recovering belief networks from data based only on measurable variables. Hence models assuming existence of hidden variables are under development. This paper presents a new algorithm "accelerating" the known CI algorithm of Spirtes, Glymour and Scheines {Spirtes:93}.

Causal graphical models in systems genetics: A unified framework for joint inference of causal network and genetic architecture for correlated phenotypes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Causal inference approaches in systems genetics exploit quantitative trait loci (QTL) genotypes to infer causal relationships among phenotypes. The genetic architecture of each phenotype may be complex, and poorly estimated genetic architectures may ...

Polydesigns and Causal Inference

open access: yesBiometrics, 2005
Summary In an increasingly common class of studies, the goal is to evaluate causal effects of treatments that are only partially controlled by the investigator. In such studies there are two conflicting features: (1) a model on the full cohort design and data can identify the causal effects of interest, but can be sensitive to extreme regions of that ...

MERLiN: Mixture Effect Recovery in Linear Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Causal inference concerns the identification of cause-effect relationships between variables, e.g. establishing whether a stimulus affects activity in a certain brain region.

Clarifying causal mediation analysis for the applied researcher: Defining effects based on what we want to learn

open access: yes, 2020
The incorporation of causal inference in mediation analysis has led to theoretical and methodological advancements -- effect definitions with causal interpretation, clarification of assumptions required for effect identification, and an expanding array ...

Causal inference

open access: yesRevista de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud, 2014
Establishing causality has been a problem throughout history of philosophy of science. This paper discusses the philosophy of causal inference along the different school of thoughts and methods: Rationalism, Empiricism, Inductive method, Hypothetical ...

Semiparametric theory and empirical processes in causal inference

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we review important aspects of semiparametric theory and empirical processes that arise in causal inference problems. We begin with a brief introduction to the general problem of causal inference, and go on to discuss estimation and ...

Adverse events associated with COVID-19 vaccination or diagnosis among pregnant and non-pregnant women in the United States, 2021-2022

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases
Objectives: To quantify the incidence of adverse events after COVID-19 vaccination and COVID-19 diagnosis in women of reproductive age; to examine pregnancy as a potential risk modifier.
