Keywords: Causality, Correlation
Abstract: Causation and inductive inference have been linked in the philosophical literature
since David Hume. The opinions on causation and causal discovery over the
past two decades are having influence not only within philosophy, but also in
computer science, statistics and cognition. Among those views, there are different
understandings of the relationships between causation and correlation. So we may
stand on both theoretical and practical perspective to rethink their relations. In
this essay, we try to give a brief summary of causation and correlation based on
the views in different domains, and finally focus on the cognitive AI’s causality
perception.
