# Causal Inference 360
A Python package for inferring causal effects from observational data.
## Description
Causal inference analysis enables estimating the causal effect of
an intervention on some outcome from real-world non-experimental observational data.
This package provides a suite of causal methods,
under a unified scikit-learn-inspired API.
It implements meta-algorithms that allow plugging in arbitrarily complex machine learning models.
This modular approach supports highly-flexible causal modelling.
The fit-and-predict-like
API makes it possible to train on one set of examples
and estimate an effect on the other (out-of-bag),
which allows for a more "honest"<sup>1</sup> effect estimation.
The package also includes an evaluation suite.
Since most causal-models utilize machine learning models internally,
we can diagnose poor-performing models by re-interpreting known ML evaluations from a causal perspective.

## Installation
```bash
pip install causallib
```
## Usage
The package is imported using the name `causallib`.
Each causal model requires an internal machine-learning model.
`causallib` supports any model that has a sklearn-like fit-predict API
(note some models might require a `predict_proba` implementation).
For example:
```Python
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
from causallib.estimation import IPW
from causallib.datasets import load_nhefs
data = load_nhefs()
ipw = IPW(LogisticRegression())
ipw.fit(data.X, data.a)
potential_outcomes = ipw.estimate_population_outcome(data.X, data.a, data.y)
effect = ipw.estimate_effect(potential_outcomes[1], potential_outcomes[0])
```
Comprehensive Jupyter Notebooks examples can be found in the [examples directory](examples).
### Community support
We use the Slack workspace at [causallib.slack.com](https://causallib.slack.com/) for informal communication.
We encourage you to ask questions regarding causal-inference modelling or
usage of causallib that don't necessarily merit opening an issue on Github.

### Approach to causal-inference
Some key points on how we address causal-inference estimation
##### 1. Emphasis on potential outcome prediction
Causal effect may be the desired outcome.
However, every effect is defined by two potential (counterfactual) outcomes.
We adopt this two-step approach by separating the effect-estimating step
from the potential-outcome-prediction step.
A beneficial consequence to this approach is that it better supports
multi-treatment problems where "effect" is not well-defined.
##### 2. Stratified average treatment effect
The causal inference literature devotes special attention to the population
on which the effect is estimated on.
For example, ATE (average treatment effect on the entire sample),
ATT (average treatment effect on the treated), etc.
By allowing out-of-bag estimation, we leave this specification to the user.
For example, ATE is achieved by `model.estimate_population_outcome(X, a)`
and ATT is done by stratifying on the treated: `model.estimate_population_outcome(X.loc[a==1], a.loc[a==1])`
##### 3. Families of causal inference models
We distinguish between two types of models:
* *Weight models*: weight the data to balance between the treatment and control groups,
and then estimates the potential outcome by using a weighted average of the observed outcome.
Inverse Probability of Treatment Weighting (IPW or IPTW) is the most known example of such models.
* *Direct outcome models*: uses the covariates (features) and treatment assignment to build a
model that predicts the outcome directly. The model can then be used to predict the outcome
under any assignment of treatment values, specifically the potential-outcome under assignment of
all controls or all treated.
These models are usually known as *Standardization* models, and it should be noted that, currently,
they are the only ones able to generate *individual effect estimation* (otherwise known as CATE).
##### 4. Confounders and DAGs
One of the most important steps in causal inference analysis is to have
proper selection on both dimensions of the data to avoid introducing bias:
* On rows: thoughtfully choosing the right inclusion\exclusion criteria
for individuals in the data.
* On columns: thoughtfully choosing what covariates (features) act as confounders
and should be included in the analysis.
This is a place where domain expert knowledge is required and cannot be fully and truly automated
by algorithms.
This package assumes that the data provided to the model fit the criteria.
However, filtering can be applied in real-time using a scikit-learn pipeline estimator
that chains preprocessing steps (that can filter rows and select columns) with a causal model at the end.
