    Search Algorithms: CCD
    



    
    
        
            Search Algorithms: GCCD
        
    
    

The CCD-Max algorithm is a modification of the CCD algorithm (due to
    Thomas Richardson, see). It uses the PC-Max strategy to modify the CCD
    algorithm.

The algorithm is pointwise consistent for linear systems with Normal
    distributions, no latent variables and no correlated twoCycleErrors. It is
    similarly consistent for categorical variables with a Multinomial
    distribution if the true causal graph and the distribuiton satisfy the
    local Markov conditon--which is quite restrictive for categorical
    variables for cyclic systems.
