2//!
3//! Double / debiased machine learning (Chernozhukov et al., 2018) in Rust.
4//!
5//! ## Models
6//!
7//! - [`Plr`]: partially linear regression (partialling-out or IV-type score)
8//! - [`Irm`]: interactive regression model for a binary treatment (ATE / ATTE)
9//! - [`Pliv`]: partially linear IV regression
10//! - [`Iivm`]: interactive IV model, local average treatment effect (LATE) with a binary instrument
11//! - [`Did`] / [`DidCs`]: doubly robust difference-in-differences for panel data and
12//!   repeated cross-sections (Sant'Anna & Zhao, 2020)
13//! - [`StaggeredDid`]: DID with staggered adoption, group-time effects `ATT(g, t)` and their
14//!   aggregation by cohort, calendar time or event time (Callaway & Sant'Anna, 2021)
15//!
16//! All of them have scores that are linear in θ and share one engine
17//! ([`fit_model`]): repeated cross-fitting, DML2 estimation, standard errors,
18//! confidence intervals, a multiplier [`Bootstrap`] for joint inference and
19//! multiple-testing adjustment. New scores plug in via [`LinearScoreModel`].
20//!
21//! ## Clustered data
22//!
23//! [`DmlData::with_clusters`] / [`DmlData::with_two_way_clusters`] make sample splitting
24//! cluster-aware and standard errors cluster-robust (Chiang et al., 2022).
25//!
26//! ## Sensitivity analysis
27//!
28//! [`DmlFit::sensitivity_analysis`] bounds the effect of omitted confounders (PLR, IRM, DID)
29//! and reports robustness values; `sensitivity_benchmark` calibrates the scenario against
30//! observed covariates.
31//!
32//! ## Heterogeneous effects
33//!
34//! - [`SLearner`], [`TLearner`], [`XLearner`], [`RLearner`], [`DrLearner`]: CATE meta-learners
35//! - [`Blp`]: best linear predictor of the CATE and group average effects (GATE) with
36//!   robust inference, from [`DrLearner`] fits or [`DmlFit::cate`] / [`DmlFit::gate`]
37//!
38//! ## Building blocks
39//!
40//! - [`DmlData`]: outcome `y`, one or more treatments `d`, covariates `x`, optional instrument `z`
41//! - [`Regressor`] / [`Classifier`]: plug-in nuisance learners
42//!   ([`Ols`], [`Lasso`], [`LogisticRegression`], [`RandomForestRegressor`],
43//!   [`RandomForestClassifier`], [`GradientBoostingRegressor`], [`GradientBoostingClassifier`]
44//!   built in)
45//! - [`KFold`] / [`SampleSplitting`]: reproducible sample splitting
46//!
47//! ```
48//! use dml_core::{DmlData, Ols, Plr};
49//! use ndarray::{Array1, Array2};
50//!
51//! let n = 200;
52//! let x = Array2::from_shape_fn((n, 2), |(i, j)| ((i * 7 + j * 3) % 11) as f64);
53//! let d: Array1<f64> = (0..n).map(|i| x[[i, 0]] + ((i * 13) % 5) as f64).collect();
54//! let y: Array1<f64> = (0..n).map(|i| 0.5 * d[i] - x[[i, 1]] + ((i * 17) % 3) as f64).collect();
55//!
56//! let fit = Plr::new(Ols::new(), Ols::new()).n_folds(5).seed(42).fit(&DmlData::new(y, d, x)?)?;
57//! assert!((fit.coef()[0] - 0.5).abs() < 0.1);
58//! let ci = fit.confint(0.95)?; // shape (n_treat, 2)
59//! # let _ = ci;
60//! # Ok::<(), dml_core::DmlError>(())
