Causal discovery algorithms are often leveraged for inferring causal relationships and recovering a causal model from data. However, causal discovery from data alone is limited by the structural constraints of the used dataset, the lack of causal logic, and the lack of external knowledge. Thus, data-driven causal discovery can only suggest possible causal relationships at best. To overcome these limitations, Large Language Models (LLMs) and knowledge systems, such as Retrieval-Augmented Generati...
