Towards Interactive Causal Relation Discovery Driven by an Ontology.

Discovering causal relations in a knowledge base represents nowadays a challenging issue, as it gives a brand new way of understanding complex domains. In this paper, we present a method to combine an ontology with a probabilistic rela-tional model (PRM), in order to help a user to check his/her assumption on causal relations between data and to discover new relationships. This assumption is important as it guides the PRM construction and provide a learning under causal constraints.
