About

Maintained by Fred GruberFirst published 2015-03-072 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

The code computes the structural intervention distance (SID) between a true directed acyclic graph (DAG) and an estimated DAG. Definition and details about the implementation can be found in J. Peters and P. Bühlmann: "Structural intervention distance (SID) for evaluating causal graphs", Neural Computation 27, pages 771-799, 2015 doi:10.1162/NECO_a_00708.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)

install.packages("SID", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("fkgruber/SID_cran")

Development version from fkgruber/SID_cran. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-sid

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make
