OK, so no “backwards causation” ? (not sure if that’s a technical term and/or if I’m using it right...)
Is there a word we could use instead of “linear”, which to an ML person sounds like “as in linear algebra”?
Yes, it’s about no backwards assumption. Linear has lots of meanings, I’m not concerned about this getting confused with linear algebra, but you can suggest a better term if you have one.
