How Does Bayesian Causal Discovery Fail? Characterising Structural Consequences in Linear Gaussian Networks under Latent Confounding

arXiv cs.AI · 2026-07-13 Cached

This paper analyzes how Bayesian causal discovery fails under latent confounding in linear Gaussian networks, deriving a correlation threshold that causes spurious edges to be favored by the score function and characterizing two distinct posterior failure regimes.

Learning Sparsest Linear Causal DAGs with Latent Confounders via Higher-Order Cumulants

arXiv cs.LG · 2026-07-08 Cached

Proposes a finite-sample method for recovering the sparsest DAG in linear non-Gaussian acyclic models with latent confounders using higher-order cumulants, without restricting the number of latents.
