US Patent 11860720 Non-linear causal modeling from diverse data sources

Techniques for causal modeling. Historical feature data is received, relating to a plurality of nodes in a system. A machine learning (ML) model is generated, for a node of the plurality of nodes. The ML model is trained to predict a plurality of future feature values for the node based on at least a portion of the historical feature data. A causal graph is generated, for the plurality of nodes, using a feature selection mechanism within the ML model. The feature selection mechanism includes a regularization term encouraging sparsity of nodes in selected features in the ML model.
