Résumé	Greedy Equivalence Search (GES) is a score-based algorithm for learning the causal structure of a set of variables from observational data. Introduced by David Maxwell Chickering in 2002, GES operates directly on Markov equivalence classes of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), represented as completed partially directed acyclic graphs (CPDAGs). Under the assumptions of causal sufficiency and a faithful data-generating process, GES is proven to recover the true equivalence class in the large-sample limit.	NOTEARS (No Tears: Acyclicity Regression Structure) is a causal structure learning algorithm introduced by Zheng, Aragam, Ravikumar, and Xing in 2018 at NeurIPS. It reformulates the combinatorially hard problem of learning a directed acyclic graph (DAG) from observational data as a continuous, smooth optimization problem, enabling the use of standard gradient-based solvers and removing the need for exhaustive combinatorial search over graph space.
