Abstract
In this paper we describe a test of Granger non-causality from the perspective of a new measure of nonparametric conditional independence. We apply the proposed test on two synthetic nonlinear problems where linear Granger causality fails and show that the proposed method is able to derive the true causal connectivity effectively.
