Description Usage Arguments Value Examples
Takes an input ancestral graph (a graph with directed, bidirected and undirected edges) and converts it to a DAG by replacing every bidirected edge x <-> y with a substructure x <- L -> y, where L is a latent variable, and every undirected edge x – y with a substructure x -> S <- y, where S is a selection variable. This function does not check whether the input is actually an ancestral graph.

LNames of newly inserted latent variables.
SNames of newly inserted selection variables.
