Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Theoretical We introduce the notion of adjustment pair and present complete graphical conditions for identifying causal effects by adjustment. We further design an algorithm for listing all admissible adjustment pairs in polynomial delay... Finally, we describe a statistical estimation procedure that can be performed once a set is known to be admissible...

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 Routines used to list admissible pairs
Open Source Code No The paper does not include an unambiguous statement about releasing source code for the methodology described, nor does it provide a direct link to a code repository.
Open Datasets No The paper is theoretical and does not conduct empirical studies with specific datasets. While it discusses the use of "unbiased data" within its theoretical framework (e.g., "leveraging external data that may be available without selection bias (e.g., data from census)"), it does not provide concrete access information (links, DOIs, specific citations) for any publicly available or open dataset used in its own research.
Dataset Splits No The paper is theoretical and does not conduct empirical experiments that would require specific training/test/validation dataset splits.
Hardware Specification No The paper focuses on theoretical and algorithmic contributions and does not describe any computational experiments. Therefore, no hardware specifications are mentioned.
Software Dependencies No The paper is theoretical and focuses on algorithms and proofs. It does not mention any specific software components with version numbers that would be required to replicate experiments.
Experiment Setup No The paper is theoretical and does not describe any experiments that would require specific setup details, hyperparameters, or training configurations.
