Enum CausalMechanism 

pub enum CausalMechanism {
    Linear {
        coefficient: f64,
    },
    Threshold {
        cutoff: f64,
    },
    Polynomial {

}

Causal mechanism defining how a parent influences a child.

Variants

Linear

Linear: child += coefficient * parent

Fields

coefficient: f64

Threshold

Threshold: child = 1 if parent > cutoff else 0

Fields

cutoff: f64

Polynomial

Polynomial: child += sum(coeff[i] * parent^i)

Fields

coefficients: Vec<f64>

Logistic

Logistic: child += 1 / (1 + exp(-scale * (parent - midpoint)))

Fields

scale: f64

midpoint: f64
