This collection of cause-effect pair datasets was created by the Max-Planck-Institute in Tuebingen, Germany (https://webdav.tuebingen.mpg.de/cause-effect/). Task: Identify for each pair the causal direction using the observed samples only. Summary: Size of collection: 108 datasets with 2 columns each of various sizes Task: Causal Discovery Problem Data Type: Mixed Data Dataset Scope: Collection of Datasets Ground Truth: Known Graph Temporal Structure: Static Data License: CC BY-NC 4.0 (for exceptions see below) Missing Values: No Missing Values Missingness Statement: There are no missing values. Collection: The database contains the following datasets. Nr.
