All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<PcCommon.PcHeuristicType>, Constable

Enclosing class:

PcCommon

public static enum PcCommon.PcHeuristicType
extends Enum<PcCommon.PcHeuristicType>

The PC heuristic type, where this is taken from Causation, Prediction, and Search.

NONE = no heuristic, PC-1 = sort nodes alphabetically; PC-1 = sort edges by p-value; PC-3 = additionally sort edges in reverse order using p-values of associated independence facts. See this reference:
