Cause or Trigger? From Philosophy to Causal Modeling

The files contain the Python implementation of the Cause-Trigger algorithm, the codes for experiments and data. Based on the temporal measurements of natural processes, the algorithm differentiates among causal and triggering processes of a selected target process (effect). The Cause-Trigger algorithm is validated on publicly available ERA5 data corresponding to the locations of two cyclones Freddy and Zazu. The findings obtained from the experiments agree with the expert’s knowledge.
