A Note on Systematic Conflict Generation in CA-EN-type Causal Structures
This work addresses conflict generation in causal structures for researchers in causal inference, but it appears incremental as it builds on existing CA-EN-type frameworks.
The paper tackles the problem of systematically identifying possible conflicts in CA-EN-type causal structures by proposing a Potential Conflict Structure (PCS) as a basic tool for conflict generation and localization, focusing on the outermost graph level.
This paper is aimed at providing a very first, more "global", systematic point of view with respect to possible conflict generation in CA-EN-like causal structures. For simplicity, only the outermost level of graphs is taken into account. Localization of the "conflict area", diagnostic preferences, and bases for systematic conflict generation are considered. A notion of {\em Potential Conflict Structure} ({\em PCS}) constituting a basic tool for identification of possible conflicts is proposed and its use is discussed.
