CDS: Counterfactual Directionality Score for Structured Interventions in Spatial Graphs

Quantifying directional influence between node populations is a fundamental problem in graph-based modeling, particularly in spatial biological systems where cell-cell interactions shape functional outcomes. Existing approaches based on attention, attribution, or correlation capture associations but do not provide a principled framework for evaluating directional effects under controlled perturbations. We introduce a framework for structured counterfactual interventions in graph-based models to…
