Title: Time series causal discovery with variable lags

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.04081v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Causal Bayesian Networks (CBNs) are a powerful tool for reasoning under uncertainty about complex real-world problems. Such problems evolve over time, responding to external shocks as they occur. To support decision-making, CBNs require a cause-and-effect map of the variables under consideration, known as the network's structure. Learning the graphical structure of a causal model from data remains challenging; learning it from time-series data is
