Data-driven causal inference in such systems is challenging since datasets are often high dimensional and nonlinear with limited sample sizes. Here, we introduce a novel method that flexibly combines linear or nonlinear conditional independence tests with a causal discovery algorithm to estimate causal networks from large-scale time series datasets. We validate the method on time series of well-understood physical mechanisms in the climate system and the human heart and using large-scale synthetic datasets mimicking the typical properties of real-world data. The experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art techniques in detection power, which opens up entirely new possibilities to discover and quantify causal networks from time series across a range of research fields.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section data-title=\"Introduction\">\n<div id=\"Sec1-section\" class=\"c-article-section\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We will discuss about \u201cDetecting and quantifying causal associations in large nonlinear time series datasets\u201d, Runge et al., Science Advances, 2019 Identifying causal relationships and quantifying their strength from observational &hellip;
