discover_rules

Discover the minimal set of rules linearly decomposing the Conditional
Average Treatment Effect (CATE).

internal

Provides a new method for interpretable heterogeneous
treatment effects characterization in terms of decision rules
via an extensive exploration of heterogeneity patterns by an
ensemble-of-trees approach, enforcing high stability in the
discovery. It relies on a two-stage pseudo-outcome regression, and
it is supported by theoretical convergence guarantees. Bargagli-Stoffi,
