Counterfactual Inference - std.causal.counterfactual

<- Causal Reference

This module adds pragmatic counterfactual APIs on top of Eta’s ADMG identification engine.

Import

(import std.causal.counterfactual)

API

FunctionDescription
(twin-network g intervened-vars)Duplicates g into a counterfactual world with primed node names and intervention-aware edge surgery
(id* g gamma)Counterfactual identification entry point for conjunctions of Y_X events
(idc* g gamma delta)Conditional counterfactual identification entry point
(do:ett g y x x*)Effect of treatment on the treated query `P(Y_x

Event shapes

gamma is a list of counterfactual events:

'((y x))            ; Y_x
'((y (x z)))        ; Y_{x,z}

delta is a list of conditioning assignments where the first element is the variable name:

'((x 0))
'((x 0) (z 1))

Example

(define g '((x -> m) (m -> y) (x <-> y)))

;; Counterfactual identification
(id* g '((y x)))

;; Effect of treatment on the treated
(do:ett g 'y 'x 0)
