Inferring the structure of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) from data is a central challenge in causal discovery, particularly in modern high-dimensional settings where large-scale interventional data are increasingly available. While…

Lachesis protocol~\cite{lachesis2021} leverages a DAG of events to allow nodes to reach fast consensus of events. This work introduces DAG progress metrics to drive the nodes to emit new events more effectively. With these metrics, nodes…
