Compact Representations of Extended Causal Models
  Judea Pearl was the first to propose a definition of actual causation using
causal models. A number of authors have suggested that an adequate account of
actual causation must appeal not only to causal structure, but also to
considerations of normality. In earlier work, we provided a definition of
actual causation using extended causal models, which include information about
both causal structure and normality. Extended causal models are potentially
very complex. In this paper, we show how it is possible to achieve a compact
representation of extended causal models.
