We consider causal discovery, which implies learning and discovering causal structures from available data, owing to the significance of interpreting causal relationships in various fields. Research on causal discovery has been primarily focused on constraint- and score-based interpretable methods rather than on methods based on complex deep learning models. However, identifying causal relationships in real-world datasets remains challenging. Numerous studies have been conducted using small datasets with established ground truths. Moreover, constraint-based methods are based on conditional independence tests. However, such tests have a lower statistical power when applied to small datasets. To solve the small sample size problem, we propose a model that generates a continuous function from available samples using radial basis function approximation. We address the problem by extracting data from the generated continuous function and evaluate the proposed method on both real and synthetic datasets generated by structural equation modeling.

One crucial aspect in VLC is the conversion of the complex F-OFDM signal into a real signal that corresponds with direct detection and intensity modulation. Traditionally, achieving a real F-OFDM signal has involved imposing Hermitian symmetry (HS) on the samples of the Inverse Fast Fourier transform (IFFT), which requires 2N-point IFFT and obtains an N-point FFT, thus adding complexity. In this study, a novel approach is presented and implemented, aiming to enhance spectral efficiency and reduce system complexity by generating a real F-OFDM signal without relying on HS. This approach is then compared with HS-free (HSF)-OFDM, direct current biased optical OFDM, and asymmetrically clipped optical OFDM. The suggested method offers a remarkable improvement of ~50% in the required IFFT/FFT volume. Consequently, this method reduces hardware complexity and power usage compared with the traditional F-OFDM method.
