What problem does it solve?

Observational data often cannot support randomized experiments, yet estimating causal effects is essential for credible decision-making. This skill provides a modular pipeline of methods to estimate treatment effects under confounding, enabling causal interpretation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Propensity score matching (PSM) to balance treated and control groups.
  • Inverse probability weighting (IPW/IPTW), instrumental variables, difference-in-differences (DID), regression discontinuity design (RDD), and DAG-based confounder selection.
  • Use cases span epidemiology, economics, and social sciences, with templates and analyses for common observational-study scenarios.

Quick Start

Provide a dataset with treatment, outcome, and covariates, then run the causal-inference pipeline to obtain the estimated effects.
