//Add the description.md of the data file pair0004 Cause-effect is a growing database with two-variable cause-effect pairs created at Max-Planck-Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tuebingen, Germany.
======================================================================================================================================
Some pairs are highdimensional, for machine readability the relevant information about this is coded in Meta-data.
Meta-data contains the following information:
number of pair | 1st column of cause | last column of cause | 1st column of effect | last column of effect | dataset weight
The dataset weight should be used for calculating average performance of causal inference methods to avoid a bias introduced by having multiple copies of essentially the same data (for example, the pairs 56-63).
When you use this data set in a publication, please cite the following paper (which also contains much more detailed information regarding this data set in the supplement):
