Counterfactual causal analysis on structured data
2021
Data generated in a real-world business environment can be highly
connected with intricate relationships among entities. Studying relationships
and understanding their dynamics can provide deeper understanding of business
events. However, finding important causal relations among entities is a daunting task with heavy dependency on data scientists. Also due to fundamental
problem of causal inference it is impossible to directly observe causal effects.
Thus, a method is proposed to explain predictive causal relations in an arbitrary
linked dataset using counterfactual type causality. The proposed method can
generate counterfactual examples with high fidelity in minimal time. It can explain causal relations among any chosen response variable and an arbitrary set
of independent causal variables to provide explanations in natural language.
The evidence of the explanations is shown in the form of a summarized connected data graph
