[api] Modeling different types of interventions #135

Description

@adam2392

Not all interventions are equivalent. There are different kinds:

  • do(X=x) = set the value of X to a scalar
  • do(X=f(.)) = set the value of X to a deterministic function that we can evaluate
  • "mechanism change" = alter the functional relationships of one or all the parental relationships wrt the node
  • "additive" = add noise

Mechanism change can be further decomposed to:

  • alter the structure (i.e. SCM arguments)
  • do not alter the structure (parents are exactly the same)
