CausalGraphicalModels
Introduction
causalgraphicalmodels is a python module for describing and manipulating Causal Graphical Models and Structural Causal Models. Behind the scenes it is a light wrapper around the python graph library networkx, together with some CGM specific tools.
It is currently in a very early stage of development. All feedback is welcome.
Example
For a quick overview of CausalGraphicalModel, see this example notebook.
Install
pip install causalgraphicalmodels

- A fantastic blog post, If correlation doesnβt imply causation, then what does? from Michael Nielsen
- These lecture notes from Jonas Peters
