Week 7, Day 1
Read Pearl's paper about the "effect of treatment on the treated" (source); this may be a useful tool a bit later on, as it allows estimation of a counterfactual distribution under conditional intervention.
Started implementing the "closest worlds" approach, using DataFrames to easily represent and transform each observation in the dataset.
Met with Roger and discussed reordered to-do list:
- Implement Lewis' imaging approach (closest worlds).
- Implement test cases.
- Search for real-world datasets.
- Implement Pearl's deterministic/probabilistic approaches.
- Implement ETT.
- Implement mediation/additive intervention.
- Implement PNS.
