Under pure observational data, directed acyclic graphs encoding the same conditional independencies cannot be distinguished and are collected into Markov equivalence classes. In many contexts, however, observational measurements are supplemented by interventional data that improve directed acyclic graph identifiability and enhance causal effect estimation. We propose a Bayesian framework for multivariate data partially generated after stochastic interventions. To this end, we introduce an effective prior elicitation procedure leading to a closed-form expression for the directed acyclic graph marginal likelihood and guaranteeing score equivalence among directed acyclic graphs that are Markov equivalent post intervention. Under the Gaussian setting, we show, in terms of posterior ratio consistency, that the true network will be asymptotically recovered, regardless of the specific distribution of the intervened variables and of the relative asymptotic dominance between observational and interventional measurements. We validate our theoretical results via simulation and we implement a Markov chain Monte Carlo sampler for posterior inference on the space of directed acyclic graphs on both synthetic and biological protein expression data.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/biomet\/asad032","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,11]],"date-time":"2023-05-11T14:50:45Z","timestamp":1683816645000},"page":"195-214","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Bayesian learning of network structures from interventional experimental data"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"111","author":[{"given":"F","family":"Castelletti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Statistical Sciences, Universit\u00e0 Cattolica del Sacro Cuore , Largo A.
