Direct causal variable discovery leveraging the invariance principle: application in biomedical studies

2024-08-29

Abstract excerpt

Accurate identification of direct causal (parental) variables for a target is of primary interest in many applications, especially in biomedical sciences. It could promote our understanding of disease mechanisms, and facilitate the discovery of new biomarkers and therapeutic targets for clinical traits. However, standard machine learning approaches often identify spurious associations, while existing causal infere...
