NLCD: A method to discover nonlinear causal relations among genes

2026-03-23

Abstract excerpt

Distinguishing correlation from causation is a fundamental challenge in many scientific fields, including biology, especially when interventions like randomized controlled trials are infeasible and only observational data are available. Methods based on statistical tests of conditional independence within the Mendelian Randomization framework can detect causality between two observed variables that are each associ...
