However, existing constraint-based causal discovery methods face challenges such as limited detection power, stemming from issues like dimensionality explosion and uncertainty caused by indirect paths. To address these problems, we propose a novel iterative conditional variable selection method designed for lagged, linear, and nonlinear causal discovery in time series. (1) Firstly, we block indirect information while minimizing the dimensionality of the conditioning set. Specifically, our method selects the parent set of each target variable as the conditioning set, which includes only those variables involved in the indirect path. (2) Then, we refine the conditioning set by selecting a subset of the parent set for each target variable to focus on indirect causal relationships. (3) Finally, the iterative application of steps (1) and (2) progressively corrects the indirect paths, leading to a significant improvement in detection power. Experimental results on synthetic and public datasets, as well as for varying time lags, node counts, and a chemical fault diagnosis case, demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) approaches.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9774,"journal":{"name":"Chemometrics and Intelligent Laboratory Systems","volume":"260 ","pages":"Article 105361"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143520783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the performance evaluation of GAINET, which is trained on the DrugBank dataset containing 191,870 DDI examples, basic metrics such as AUC-ROC, F1 score, precision and recall are used. The obtained accuracy of 0.9050, F1 score of 0.9096 and AUC-ROC of 0.9505 indicate that GAINET outperforms many state-of-the-art models and has good generalization ability even on previously untested data.

Because the process of extracting knowledge from data can become more complex and memory-consuming. Not only the presence of all features doesn't help the learning process, but also it can sometimes decrease the model's efficiency. To enhance the model's efficiency and reduce the problem's complexity, various feature selection algorithms are designed and implemented. In this paper, a novel and highly effective algorithm based on the salp swarm optimization algorithm for solving complex problems is proposed for feature selection. In the proposed method, an unexpected event that causes the chain to break apart (such as hitting an obstacle or the death of the chain leader, etc.) is modeled which is not taken into account in the salp swarm optimization algorithm. Also, the exploration capability is improved by modifying the updating the position of the chain leader. Additionally, an innovative local search algorithm has been embedded into the proposed algorithm to enhance its exploitation. The proposed approach is implemented on 14 datasets, and the results are compared by two terms, classification accuracy and number of selected features. Additionally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is tested on 2 widely used chemical datasets. The modifications that are applied to the standard salp swarm algorithm reduce the probability of getting stuck in the local optimum and simultaneously, increase the diversity of solutions.
