Machine Learning for Causal Inference in Biological Networks: Perspectives of This Challenge

Most machine learning-based methods predict outcomes rather than understanding causality. Machine learning methods have been proved to be efficient in finding correlations in data, but unskilful to determine causation. This issue severely limits the applicability of machine learning methods to infer...
