Conditional Local Independence Testing with Application to Dynamic Causal Discovery
In this note, we extend the conditional local independence testing theory developed in Christgau et al. (2024) to Ito processes. The result can be applied to causal discovery in dynamic systems.

A Fast Kernel-based Conditional Independence test with Application to Causal Discovery
Kernel-based conditional independence (KCI) testing is a powerful nonparametric method commonly employed in causal discovery tasks. Despite its flexibility and statistical reliability, cubic computational complexity limi…

Conditional independence testing is an important problem, especially in Bayesian network learning and causal discovery. Due to the curse of dimensionality, testing for conditional independence of continuous variables is …
Causal DiscoveryTesting Conditional Mean Independence Using Generative Neural Networks
Conditional mean independence (CMI) testing is crucial for statistical tasks including model determination and variable importance evaluation. In this work, we introduce a novel population CMI measure and a bootstrap-bas…
Conditional independence testing via weighted partial copulas and nearest neighbors
This paper introduces the \textit{weighted partial copula} function for testing conditional independence. The proposed test procedure results from these two ingredients: (i) the test statistic is an explicit Cramer-von M…
Fast Nonparametric Conditional Independence Testing via Two-Stage Regression
Constraint-based causal discovery relies on repeated conditional independence tests, but fast nonparametric tests often sacrifice calibration, especially when variables depend on the conditioning set through nonlinear re…
