Open Problems and Extensions

The cause-effect inference problem is relatively new in the Machine Learning literature and there are still a lot of open problems to be addressed in order to build a robust tool that can be used by the practitioner to confirm for example if a given treatment has an impact or not on a given disease or to discover if a gene has a regulatory power on an other one. Here are the open problems:

  • Relax the Causal Sufficiency Assumption
  • Need for Real Datasets of a Big Size
  • Biased Assessment Due to Artifacts in Data
  • Extension of the Generative Approach for Categorical Variables
  • Extension of the Pairwise Settnng for Complete Graph Inference
  • Computational Complexity Limitations
  • Relax Restrictive Assumptions on Causal Mechanisms
