Bayesian Network Recovery and Modification

About

This skill provides a rigorous framework for Bayesian Network tasks, offering specialized guidance on structure learning, parameter estimation, and causal inference. It helps users navigate the complexities of DAG recovery by selecting the right algorithms for continuous or discrete data, managing memory constraints through subsampling, and correctly applying the do-operator for interventions. With a focus on avoiding common pitfalls like correlation-based reasoning and misidentifying Markov equivalence classes, it ensures that recovered models are statistically sound and mathematically valid for generating interventional distributions.

Key Features

• Systematic resolution rules for ambiguous edge directionality in equivalence classes
