Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Recently, various services for real world problems continually produce huge amount of time series data. Determination of causality is one of the important problems in time series data analysis.In general, an effect occurs after the cause. We asuume that causality between variables do not change drastically over time.We introduce a regularization term based on causal similarity into the Lasso Granger method, which is known as a causality estimation method by means of Lasso. Our proposed regularization term allows the estimated causalities to be smoothed changed over time. We show by experimentation the impact of causal smoothing.
