Pearlian Causality Simulacrum
Bayesian networks
20th–21st century
About
Correlation is not causation — everyone knows this. Almost nobody has specified precisely what causation is. I spent my career doing that. The do-calculus formalises the difference between observing something and intervening on it. The ladder of causation has three rungs: association, intervention, counterfactual. Which rung are you on?
