Code for "Self-Compatibility"

Install

Install requirements via

pip -r requirements.txt

To generate the SID results you also need an installation of R with the packages SID and readr.

Running experiments

See respective files for command line options of every command

Data and Experiments

Data can be generated via

python generate_data synthetic 
python generate_data sachs 

Where the latter formats the Sachs dataset such that it can be used by the rest of the code.

The directories of the datasets have a time stamp. To run the experiments, type e.g.

cd ../../data/benchmark_23.09.26_14.05.39
python ../../src/causal_discovery.py --algo FCI

and for the self-compatibility test e.g.

python ../../src/self_benchmark.py --algo FCI

For the results with the structural interventional distance, run

Rscript calc_SID.R

after the actual causal discovery in the directory of the form benchmark_*/ALGO_* and then the respective plot commands.

Plots

To generate the correlation plots as in Fig. 2 and the example graphs enter the (time stamped) directory of the self-compatibility test, so e.g.

cd RCD_23.09.26_14.06.52/self_benchmark_23.09.26_14.38.36
python ../../../../src/plot_correlation.py
python ../../../../src/plot_example_graphs.py

To generate the model selection plots, you have to be in the directory of the benchmark, i.e. benchmark_* and the run

python ../../../../src/plot_model_selection.py parameters

or

python ../../../../src/plot_model_selection.py algorithms

after generating the respective results via causal_discovery.py and self_benchmark.py.
