proceedings.neurips.ccCausal Inference. Causal inference [23, 35] has been widely adopted in psychology, politics and epidemiology for years [36, 37, 38]. It doesn’t just serve as an interpretation framework, but also provides solutions to achieve the desired objectives by pursing causal effect. Recently, causal

www.sjsu.eduStatistical inference . Statistical inference is the act of generalizing from the data (“sample”) to a larger phenomenon (“population”) with calculated degree of certainty. The act of generalizing and deriving statistical judgments is the process of inference. [Note: There is a distinction between causal inference and statistical inference.
Hill’s Criteria for Causality - RTI-HS
www.rtihs.orgcausal inference could be forgotten: it would only be necessary to consult the checklist of criteria to see if a relation were causal. We know from philosophy that a set of sufficient criteria does not exist [3, 6]. Nevertheless, lists of causal criteria have become popular, possibly because they seem to provide a road map through complicated ...

web.stanford.educausal e ect of the treatment on the i-th unit is then1 i= Y i(1) Y i(0): (1.1) The fundamental problem in causal inference is that only one treatment can be assigned to a given individual, and so only one of Y i(0) and Y i(1) can ever be observed. Thus, i can never be observed.

In recent years, however, causal mechanisms have been studied within the modern framework of causal inference with an emphasis on the assumptions required for identi - cation. This approach has highlighted limitations of earlier methods and pointed the way towards a more exible estimation strategy. In addition, new research designs have been
