bipartite {cbl}

Simulated data

Description

Simulated dataset of n=200 samples with 2 foreground variables and 10 background variables. The design follows that of Watson & Silva (2022), with Z drawn from a multivariate Gaussian distribution with a Toeplitz covariance matrix of autocorrelation \rho = 0.25. Expected sparsity is 0.5, signal-to-noise ratio is 2, and structural equations are linear. The ground truth for foreground variables is X \rightarrow Y.

Usage

data(bipartite)

Format

A list with two elements: x (foreground variables), and z (background variables).
