CausaLab - Graph SHD (7-Node SCMs): leaderboard

The causal graph an LLM agent commits to after its budgeted observations and interventions in CausaLab (Yang et al., 2026), compared with the hidden 7-node structural causal model. Directed structural Hamming distance (missing, extra and reversed edges, a reversed edge counted once), averaged over up to 50 topologies; lower is better.

Metric: Directed structural Hamming distance of the final hypothesised graph to the hidden 7-node SCM (missing, extra and reversed edges; mean per episode, lower is better). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around July 2027. 4 models tracked.
