Description

Does this repo have plans to implement the algorithm fGES[1]? fGES seems to work well for large scale problems. I wanna do some work on a large scale problem. If there is a related plan, it will help to use fGES more conveniently on the python platform, instead of calling Tetrad implemented in Java.

Research direction

No repository files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by reading the issue and the cited fGES paper, then review the existing causal-discovery implementations and how Tetrad exposes the algorithm. Done means a Python implementation is available for large-scale problems with scope and validation agreed by the maintainers.
