We present a short selective review of causal inference from observational data, with a particular emphasis on the high-dimensional scenario where the number of measured variables may be much larger than sample size. Despite major identifiability problems, making causal inference from...

Microarray experiments generate large datasets with expression values for thousands of genes, but not more than a few dozens of samples. A challenging task with these data is to reveal groups of genes which act together and whose collective expression is strongly associated with an outcome...
