Causal Factors, Causal Inference, Causal Explanation [PDF]
s from how likely it is that the person is a smoker in the first place. More generally, the trouble is that the likelihood principle aims to by-pass decisions about prior probabilities. Perhaps there are some inferential contexts where such decisions can sensibly be avoided. But the inference from Harry's heart attack to his smoking isn't one of them. (

Quantitative Causality, Causality-Aided Discovery, and Causal Machine Learning
It has been said, arguably, that causality analysis should pave a promising way to interpretable deep learning and generalization. Incorporation of causality into artificial intelligence algorithms, however, is challenged with its vagueness, nonquantitativeness, computational inefficiency, etc.

Information geometry has offered a way to formally study the efficacy of scientific models by quantifying the impact of model parameters on the predicted effects. However, there has been little formal investigation of causation in this framework, despite causal models being a fundamental part of science and explanation.

Causality is not only a central concept in philosophy and theology but also a basic aspect of human thought and speech. Causal words such as ‘making’, ‘doing’, ‘producing’, and so on, are in constant use.

K-Causality Coincides with Stable Causality [PDF]
It is proven that K-causality coincides with stable causality, and that in a K-causal spacetime the relation K^+ coincides with the Seifert's relation. As a consequence the causal relation "the spacetime is strongly causal and the closure of the causal relation is transitive" stays between stable causality and causal continuity.

When agents violate norms, they are typically judged to be more of a cause of resulting outcomes. In this paper, we suggest that norm violations also affect the causality attributed to other agents, a phenomenon we refer to as "causal superseding." We propose and test a counterfactual reasoning model of this phenomenon in four experiments.

Connectivity Analysis for Multivariate Time Series: Correlation vs. Causality
The study of the interdependence relationships of the variables of an examined system is of great importance and remains a challenging task. There are two distinct cases of interdependence.

The Eternal Relations of Origin, Causality, and Implications for Models of God
The classical doctrine of the eternal relations or origin (ERO) claims that these relations are (1) atemporal and (2) causal. In this paper, I investigate the casual nature of the ERO, highlighting that the patristic and medieval Christian thinkers who ...
