Causal Representation Learning with Instantaneous and Lagged Relations via Nonstationarity

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.03452v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal representation learning for time-series data aims to identify latent states and their causal relations from observations. In this setting, an important challenge is to model both lagged causal relations across observation intervals and faster causal effects that appear as instantaneous relations within an interval, while accounting for nonstationarity in time-series data. However, methods that jointly handle these causal relations and nonstationarity remain limited. To address this gap, we establish sufficient conditions for identifying latent states up to component permutation and component-wise invertible transformations, and their instantaneous and lagged causal structures up to the same permutation, using an observed auxiliary vari
