Title: Physical Simulators as Do-Operators: Causal Discovery under Latent Confounders for AI-for-Science
Abstract:
arXiv:2605.07467v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing interventional causal discovery methods -- IGSP, DCDI, ENCO -- assume causal sufficiency (no latent confounders) and rely on virtual interventions in synthetic simulators. In AI-for-Science settings such as molecular design and materials science, latent confounders are ubiquitous and real interventions (e.g., physics-based simulations) require hours to days per data point. We propose CFM-SD (Causal Flow Matching with Simulation Data), wh
