Preface: The 2019 ACM SIGKDD Workshop on Causal Discovery

摘要

Discovering causal relationships is the ultimate goal of many scientific explorations.However, it is not feasible to conduct randomized controlled trials in most cases. Discoveringcausal relationships in large databases of observational data is therefore very important,but it is also a challenging problem. There has been an increasing interest in discoveringcausal relationships based on observational data, and in the past few decades, significantcontributions have been made to this field by computer scientists.
