Abstract
In this work, we investigate the problem of computing an experimental distribution from a combination of the observational distribution and a partial qualitative description of the causal structure
of the domain under investigation. This description is given by a partial ancestral graph (PAG) that
represents a Markov equivalence class of causal
diagrams, i.e., diagrams that entail the same conditional independence model over observed variables, and is learnable from the observational data.
Accordingly, we develop a complete algorithm to
compute the causal effect of an arbitrary set of intervention variables on an arbitrary outcome set.
