dc.description.abstract
We consider likelihood score-based methods for causal discovery in structural causal models. In particular, we focus on Gaussian scoring and analyze the effect of model misspecification in terms of non-Gaussian error distribution. We present a surprising negative result for Gaussian likelihood scoring in combination with nonparametric regression methods.
