A causal tree method for heterogeneous treatment effects in Python
Christopher Tran, Elena Zheleva, “Learning Triggers for Heterogeneous Treatment Effects”, AAAI 2019.
Our method is based on and adapted from: https://github.com/susanathey/causalTree
Two demo codes are available to run.
python binary_example.py
Runs the tree on a binary example (asthma.txt)
python trigger_example.py
Runs a tree on a trigger problem where the treatment is continuous (note for now the example is made up and treatment does not affect outcome, this is only to show example code)
