Causal Reasoning for Events in Continuous Time: A Decision - Theoretic Approach

Abstract

The dynamics of events occurring in continu-ous time can be modelled using marked point processes, or multi-state processes. Here, we review and extend the work of Røysland et al. (2015) on causal reasoning with local inde-pendence graphs for marked point processes in the context of survival analysis. We relate the results to the decision-theoretic approach of Dawid & Didelez (2010) using influence diagrams, and present additional identifying conditions. 1
