“Correlation is not causation.” This mantra, chanted by scientists for more than a century, has led to a virtual prohibition on causal talk. Today, that taboo is dead. The causal revolution, instigated by Judea Pe... (展开全部)
内容简介· ··· A Turing Award-winning computer scientist and statistician shows how understanding causality has revolutionized science and will revolutionize artificial intelligence "Correlation is not causation." This mantra, chanted by scientists for more than a century, has led to a virtual prohib...
Sex Makes You Rich? Why We Keep Saying “Correlation Is Not Causation” Even Though It’s AnnoyingEvelyn Lamb

Of course, a basic tenant of scientific research is that correlation does not mean causation. (See the ingeniousSpurious Correlationwebsite for a poignant detour into spurious correlations). But this correlation is strong. "It's very plausible," noted Vidale. What's more, the researchers were ...
Correlation and causation, in fact, are not so clearly demarcated. Correlation is a low level of causation because there are so many factors in a complex event that a definitive outcome cannot be obtained without all factors working together.This theory sums up very well and reminds me of an...
