CausalFX (version 1.0.1)

Methods for Estimating Causal Effects from Observational Data

Description

Estimate causal effects of one variable on another, currently for binary data only. Methods include instrumental variable bounds, adjustment by a given covariate set, adjustment by an induced covariate set using a variation of the PC algorithm, and an effect bounding method (the Witness Protection Program) based on covariate adjustment with observable independence constraints.
