Statistical Causal Discovery: LiNGAM Approach

This is the first book to provide a comprehensive introduction to a new semiparametric causal discovery approach known as LiNGAM, with the fundamental background needed to understand it. It offers a general overview of the basics of the LiNGAM approach for causal discovery, estimation principles, and algorithms.

This semiparametric approach is one of the most exciting new topics in the field of causal discovery. The new framework assumes parametric assumptions on the functional forms of st...
