Information-Theoretic Algorithms and Identifiability for Causal Graph Discovery

It is a task of widespread interest to learn the underlying causal structure for systems of random variables. Entropic Causal Inference is a recent framework for learning the causal graph between two variables from observational data (i.e., without experiments) by finding the information-theoretical...
