show how compatible causal models can be merged. We then use it as the basis for combining experts' causal judgments. We also provide a definition of decomposition for causal models to cater for cases when models are incompatible. We illustrate our approach on a number of real-life examples....
Examples include teachers, cheerleaders, politicians, actors, musicians and singers. I am not sure I understand the question about chlorine and rust in water, I don't think these factors have a connection to vocal cord nodules. Other throat nodules can be cause by smoking (not as much in ...
The connections of causality with observational (correlational) and experimental studies is discussed through integrating real-life examples with theoretical concepts. Statistical methods of correlation, concordance, and regression analysis are discussed with emphasis on their scientific uses and misuses, ...
There are too many real-life examples that show when religious heritage sites and customs are commercialized for the convenience of tourist consumption, the true cultural value of these resources may be lost. The loss of authenticity in religious heritage sites affects both the daily lives of ...
These examples show us that while correlation can appear as a result of causation, as in the case of the light switch, correlation certainly does not always imply causation, as in the case of the pirates.Correlated things are not always related.[8] It’s possible to find many correlations...
See ourpublicationsfor examples of our work. Learning causal effects from data:Identifying causal effects is an integral part of scientific inquiry, spanning a wide range of questions such as understanding behavior in online systems, effects of social policies, or risk factors for diseases. As compu...
In summary, the conversation discusses the concept of causality and its validity in various scenarios. It is brought up in the thread, "I think therefore I am," by user Manuel_Silvio, and the question of whether everything we believe is caused by something we did is explored. Examples, ...
Examples of the latter are statistical cause-and-effect analyses of large datasets, aimed at identifying the relative importance of particular factors in focused topics. Schmidt et al. (2012), for instance, analyse the effects of climate policy instruments on corporate R&D and technology adoption ...
@Scott_Sumner: You write so much, I hope you’re still coming back to this. To answer your question, Judea Pearl actually has examples isomorphic to the scenarios you gave. See slides 67-70 in thelinkI gave. In that scenario, the Fed’s actions map over to the assassin that shoots th...
