Causal Discovery

In our experiments, we use BLIP to learn the causal graph from collected data. To execute BLIP, you need to clone the BLIP repo and install the dependencies. You can find the code for running BLIP in run_blip.py. Please put this script in the root directory of BLIP repo, then you can directly execute the script to run BLIP.

Usage:

python run_blip.py [-h] [--input_file INPUT_FILE] 
                   [--est_out EST_OUT]
                   [--tmp_out TMP_OUT]

Here is the arguments table for the script:

Argument	Description	Special Remark
input_file	The input data for BLIP.	`str`, should be `blip.csv` generated by `collect_data.py`.
est_out	Path to the causal graph file (should be txt file).	`str`.
tmp_out	Path of temporary data.	`str`.
