I'm using the pyagrum library for python, and I'm having trouble with the causal formulas the library calculates based on the network.
I have the following causal graph:
The graph:
"L[1,3]<-G->Q[1,4];L<-C[0,3]->Q;L<-P[1,4]->Q;Q->L;G->P"
I'd like to calculate: P(L | do(G))
PyAgrum returned me:
This equation
But this backdoor on C does NOT exist, so it's definitely wrong.
I did it by myself and got this equation:
The equation I got by hand
How do I know if what I'm doing it's right? I was trusting pyagrum to correct me but now I don't know what to do.
We have to check why the given explanation is wrong. However, the computation is correct. And the formula also : P(L|C,G) will have to be computed using classical inference and will, give at the end, the same formula as yours (actually, in your graph, it seems that P(L|do(G))=P(L|G) )
