商品描述
Beginning with a gentle introduction to causal discovery and the foundations of probability and statistics, this textbook is written in a highly pedagogical way. By uniting probability theory, statistical inference, and graph theory, the book offers a systematic pathway from foundational principles to cutting-edge algorithms, including independence tests, the PC algorithm, LiNGAM, information criteria, and Bayesian methods. Far more than a theoretical treatment, this volume emphasizes hands-on learning through Python implementations, carefully designed exercises with solutions, and intuitive graphical illustrations. Readers will gain the ability to see, run, and understand causal discovery methods in practice. Key features of this book include:
- A clear and self-contained introduction, bridging probability, statistics, and modern causal discovery techniques 100 exercises with solutions, supporting self-study and classroom use Reproducible Python code, allowing readers to implement and extend the methods themselves Intuitive figures and visual explanations that clarify abstract concepts Broad coverage of applications within statistics and data science, connecting rigorous theory with modern machine learning and causal inference
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本教科書以輕鬆的方式介紹因果發現及機率與統計的基礎,並以高度教學性的方式撰寫。透過結合機率論、統計推斷和圖論,本書提供了一條從基礎原則到尖端演算法的系統性路徑,包括獨立性檢驗、PC 演算法、LiNGAM、資訊準則和貝葉斯方法。這本書不僅僅是理論的探討,更強調透過 Python 實作、精心設計的練習題及其解答,以及直觀的圖形插圖來進行實踐學習。讀者將能夠在實際操作中看到、運行並理解因果發現方法。
本書的主要特色包括:
- 清晰且自成一體的介紹,橋接機率、統計與現代因果發現技術
- 100 道練習題及其解答,支持自學和課堂使用
- 可重現的 Python 代碼,讓讀者能夠自行實作和擴展這些方法
- 直觀的圖形和視覺解釋,澄清抽象概念
- 廣泛涵蓋統計和數據科學中的應用,將嚴謹的理論與現代機器學習和因果推斷相連結
