Partially Functional Dynamic Backdoor Diffusion-based Causal Model

ArXi:2509.00472v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Causal inference in spatio-temporal settings is critically hindered by unmeasured confounders with complex spatio-temporal dynamics and the prevalence of multi-resolution data. While diffusion models present a promising avenue for estimating structural causal models, existing approaches are limited by assumptions of causal sufficiency or static confounding, failing to capture the region-specific, temporally dependent nature of real-world latent variables or to directly handle functional variables. We bridge this gap by.
