Overview

About

Maintained by Jonas Peters1 releasesCRAN page ↗

The code takes an n x p data matrix and fits a Causal Additive Model (CAM) for estimating the causal structure of the underlying process. The output is a p x p adjacency matrix (a one in entry (i,j) indicates an edge from i to j). Details of the algorithm can be found in: P. Bühlmann, J. Peters, J. Ernest: "CAM: Causal Additive Models, high-dimensional order search and penalized regression", Annals of Statistics 42:2526-2556, 2014.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/CAM/CAM_1.0.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "CAM_1.0.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (1.0) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
