npDoseResponse (version 0.2)

Nonparametric Estimation and Inference on Dose-Response Curves

Description

A novel integral estimator for estimating the causal effects with continuous treatments (or dose-response curves) and a localized derivative estimator for estimating the derivative effects. The inference on the dose-response curve and its derivative is conducted via nonparametric bootstrap. The reference paper is Zhang, Chen, and Giessing (2024) .
