LiNGAM - Discovery of non-gaussian linear causal models

License Read the Docs

LiNGAM is a new method for estimating structural equation models or linear Bayesian networks. It is based on using the non-Gaussianity of the data.

Requirements

  • Python3
  • numpy
  • scipy
  • scikit-learn
  • graphviz
  • statsmodels

Installation

To install lingam package, use pip as follows:

$ pip install lingam
