Synthetic linear data Experiments

CHOICE = nocurl, corresponding to the linear experiments, NoCurl-2 case in the paper

CHOICE = notear, corresponding to the linear experiments, NOTEARS case in the paper

LAMBDA1 = 10, corresponding to the parameter lambda_1 in the paper.

LAMBDA2 = 1000, corresponding to the parameter lambda_2 in the paper.

python main_efficient.py --data_variable_size=10 --graph_type="erdos-renyi" --repeat=100 --methods=<CHOICE> --h_tol=1e-8 --graph_degree=4 --lambda1=<LAMBDA1> --lambda2=<LAMBDA2> --data_type="synthetic"
