A directed acyclic graph (DAG) provides valuable prior knowledge that is often discarded in regression tasks in machine learning. We show that the independences arising from the presence of collider structures in DAGs provide meaningful…
Comparing directed acyclic graphs is essential in various fields such as healthcare, social media, finance, biology, and marketing. DAGs often result from contagion processes over networks, including information spreading, retweet activity,…

Not every directed acyclic graph (DAG) whose underlying undirected graph is planar admits an upward planar drawing. We are interested in pushing the notion of upward drawings beyond planarity by considering upward $k$-planar drawings of…

We address the identifiablity and estimation of recursive max-linear structural equation models represented by an edge weighted directed acyclic graph (DAG). Such models are generally unidentifiable and we identify the whole class of DAGs…
Given a weighted digraph $G$, a $(t,g,\mu)$-DAG cover is a collection of $g$ dominating DAGs $D_1,\dots,D_g$ such that all distances are approximately preserved: for every pair $(u,v)$ of vertices, $\min_id_{D_i}(u,v)\le t\cdot d_{G}(u,v)$,…
