Pattern Causality Analysis

pc is an R package for pattern-based causality analysis in both time series and spatial cross-sectional data. It uses symbolic pattern representations and cross mapping to detect directional interactions and infer causal structure from temporal dynamics and spatial snapshots. Built on a high-performance C++ backend with a lightweight R interface, pc provides efficient and flexible tools for data-driven causality analysis.
