# Causal ML: A Python Package for Uplift Modeling and Causal Inference with ML
**Causal ML** is a Python package that provides a suite of uplift modeling and causal inference methods using machine learning algorithms based on recent
research [[1]](#Literature). It provides a standard interface that allows user to estimate the Conditional Average Treatment Effect (CATE) or Individual Treatment
 Effect (ITE) from experimental or observational data. Essentially, it estimates the causal impact of intervention `T` on outcome `Y` for users
 with observed features `X`, without strong assumptions on the model form. Typical use cases include
* **Campaign targeting optimization**: An important lever to increase ROI in an advertising campaign is to target the ad to the set of customers who will have a favorable response in a given KPI such as engagement or sales. CATE identifies these customers by estimating the effect of the KPI from ad exposure at the individual level from A/B experiment or historical observational data.
* **Personalized engagement**: A company has multiple options to interact with its customers such as different product choices in up-sell or messaging channels for communications. One can use CATE to estimate the heterogeneous treatment effect for each customer and treatment option combination for an optimal personalized recommendation system.
The package currently supports the following methods
* **Tree-based algorithms**
    * Uplift tree/random forests on KL divergence, Euclidean Distance, and Chi-Square [[2]](#Literature)
    * Uplift tree/random forests on Contextual Treatment Selection [[3]](#Literature)
    * Causal Tree [[4]](#Literature) - Work-in-progress
* **Meta-learner algorithms**
    * S-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * T-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * X-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * R-learner [[6]](#Literature)
    * Doubly Robust (DR) learner [[7]](#Literature)
    * TMLE learner [[8]](#Literature)
* **Instrumental variables algorithms**
    * 2-Stage Least Squares (2SLS)
    * Doubly Robust (DR) IV [[9]](#Literature)
* **Neural-network-based algorithms**
    * CEVAE [[10]](#Literature)
    * DragonNet [[11]](#Literature) - with `causalml[tf]` installation (see [Installation](#installation))
# Installation
Installation with `conda` is recommended. `conda` environment files for Python 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9 are available in the repository. To use models under the `inference.tf` module (e.g. `DragonNet`), additional dependency of `tensorflow` is required. For detailed instructions, see below.
## Install using `conda`:
### Install from `conda-forge`
Directly install from the conda-forge channel using conda.
```sh
$ conda install -c conda-forge causalml
```
### Install with the `conda` virtual environment
This will create a new `conda` virtual environment named `causalml-[tf-]py3x`, where `x` is in `[6, 7, 8, 9]`. e.g. `causalml-py37` or `causalml-tf-py38`. If you want to change the name of the environment, update the relevant YAML file in `envs/`
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml/envs/
$ conda env create -f environment-py38.yml	# for the virtual environment with Python 3.8 and CausalML
$ conda activate causalml-py38
(causalml-py38)
```
### Install `causalml` with `tensorflow`
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml/envs/
$ conda env create -f environment-tf-py38.yml	# for the virtual environment with Python 3.8 and CausalML
$ conda activate causalml-tf-py38
(causalml-tf-py38) pip install -U numpy			# this step is necessary to fix [#338](https://github.com/uber/causalml/issues/338)
```
## Install using `pip`:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ pip install causalml
```
### Install `causalml` with `tensorflow`
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml
$ pip install -r requirements-tf.txt
$ pip install causalml[tf]
$ pip install -U numpy							# this step is necessary to fix [#338](https://github.com/uber/causalml/issues/338)
```
## Install from source:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml

## Interpretable Causal ML
Causal ML provides methods to interpret the treatment effect models trained as follows:
### Meta Learner Feature Importances
```python
from causalml.inference.meta import BaseSRegressor, BaseTRegressor, BaseXRegressor, BaseRRegressor
from causalml.dataset.regression import synthetic_data
# Load synthetic data
y, X, treatment, tau, b, e = synthetic_data(mode=1, n=10000, p=25, sigma=0.5)
w_multi = np.array(['treatment_A' if x==1 else 'control' for x in treatment]) # customize treatment/control names
slearner = BaseSRegressor(LGBMRegressor(), control_name='control')
slearner.estimate_ate(X, w_multi, y)
slearner_tau = slearner.fit_predict(X, w_multi, y)
model_tau_feature = RandomForestRegressor()  # specify model for model_tau_feature
slearner.get_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, model_tau_feature=model_tau_feature,
                        normalize=True, method='auto', features=feature_names)
# Using the feature_importances_ method in the base learner (LGBMRegressor() in this example)
slearner.plot_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, normalize=True, method='auto')
# Using eli5's PermutationImportance
slearner.plot_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, normalize=True, method='permutation')
# Using SHAP
shap_slearner = slearner.get_shap_values(X=X, tau=slearner_tau)
# Plot shap values without specifying shap_dict
slearner.plot_shap_values(X=X, tau=slearner_tau)
# Plot shap values WITH specifying shap_dict
slearner.plot_shap_values(X=X, shap_dict=shap_slearner)
# interaction_idx set to 'auto' (searches for feature with greatest approximate interaction)
slearner.plot_shap_dependence(treatment_group='treatment_A',
                              feature_idx=1,
                              X=X,
                              tau=slearner_tau,
                              interaction_idx='auto')

# Causal ML: A Python Package for Uplift Modeling and Causal Inference with ML
**Causal ML** is a Python package that provides a suite of uplift modeling and causal inference methods using machine learning algorithms based on recent
research [[1]](#Literature). It provides a standard interface that allows user to estimate the Conditional Average Treatment Effect (CATE) or Individual Treatment
 Effect (ITE) from experimental or observational data. Essentially, it estimates the causal impact of intervention `T` on outcome `Y` for users
 with observed features `X`, without strong assumptions on the model form. Typical use cases include
* **Campaign targeting optimization**: An important lever to increase ROI in an advertising campaign is to target the ad to the set of customers who will have a favorable response in a given KPI such as engagement or sales. CATE identifies these customers by estimating the effect of the KPI from ad exposure at the individual level from A/B experiment or historical observational data.
* **Personalized engagement**: A company has multiple options to interact with its customers such as different product choices in up-sell or messaging channels for communications. One can use CATE to estimate the heterogeneous treatment effect for each customer and treatment option combination for an optimal personalized recommendation system.
The package currently supports the following methods
* **Tree-based algorithms**
    * Uplift tree/random forests on KL divergence, Euclidean Distance, and Chi-Square [[2]](#Literature)
    * Uplift tree/random forests on Contextual Treatment Selection [[3]](#Literature)
    * Causal Tree [[4]](#Literature) - Work-in-progress
* **Meta-learner algorithms**
    * S-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * T-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * X-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * R-learner [[6]](#Literature)
    * Doubly Robust (DR) learner [[7]](#Literature)
    * TMLE learner [[8]](#Literature)
* **Instrumental variables algorithms**
    * 2-Stage Least Squares (2SLS)
    * Doubly Robust (DR) IV [[9]](#Literature)
* **Neural-network-based algorithms**
    * CEVAE [[10]](#Literature)
    * DragonNet [[11]](#Literature) - with `causalml[tf]` installation (see [Installation](#installation))
# Installation
Installation with `conda` is recommended. `conda` environment files for Python 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9 are available in the repository. To use models under the `inference.tf` module (e.g. `DragonNet`), additional dependency of `tensorflow` is required. For detailed instructions, see below.

## Interpretable Causal ML
Causal ML provides methods to interpret the treatment effect models trained as follows:
### Meta Learner Feature Importances
```python
from causalml.inference.meta import BaseSRegressor, BaseTRegressor, BaseXRegressor, BaseRRegressor
from causalml.dataset.regression import synthetic_data
# Load synthetic data
y, X, treatment, tau, b, e = synthetic_data(mode=1, n=10000, p=25, sigma=0.5)
w_multi = np.array(['treatment_A' if x==1 else 'control' for x in treatment]) # customize treatment/control names
slearner = BaseSRegressor(LGBMRegressor(), control_name='control')
slearner.estimate_ate(X, w_multi, y)
slearner_tau = slearner.fit_predict(X, w_multi, y)
model_tau_feature = RandomForestRegressor()  # specify model for model_tau_feature
slearner.get_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, model_tau_feature=model_tau_feature,
                        normalize=True, method='auto', features=feature_names)
# Using the feature_importances_ method in the base learner (LGBMRegressor() in this example)
slearner.plot_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, normalize=True, method='auto')
# Using eli5's PermutationImportance
slearner.plot_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, normalize=True, method='permutation')
# Using SHAP
shap_slearner = slearner.get_shap_values(X=X, tau=slearner_tau)
# Plot shap values without specifying shap_dict
slearner.plot_shap_values(X=X, tau=slearner_tau)
# Plot shap values WITH specifying shap_dict
slearner.plot_shap_values(X=X, shap_dict=shap_slearner)

# Causal ML: A Python Package for Uplift Modeling and Causal Inference with ML
**Causal ML** is a Python package that provides a suite of uplift modeling and causal inference methods using machine learning algorithms based on recent
research [[1]](#Literature). It provides a standard interface that allows user to estimate the Conditional Average Treatment Effect (CATE) or Individual Treatment
 Effect (ITE) from experimental or observational data. Essentially, it estimates the causal impact of intervention `T` on outcome `Y` for users
 with observed features `X`, without strong assumptions on the model form. Typical use cases include
* **Campaign targeting optimization**: An important lever to increase ROI in an advertising campaign is to target the ad to the set of customers who will have a favorable response in a given KPI such as engagement or sales. CATE identifies these customers by estimating the effect of the KPI from ad exposure at the individual level from A/B experiment or historical observational data.
* **Personalized engagement**: A company has multiple options to interact with its customers such as different product choices in up-sell or messaging channels for communications. One can use CATE to estimate the heterogeneous treatment effect for each customer and treatment option combination for an optimal personalized recommendation system.
The package currently supports the following methods
* **Tree-based algorithms**
    * Uplift tree/random forests on KL divergence, Euclidean Distance, and Chi-Square [[2]](#Literature)
    * Uplift tree/random forests on Contextual Treatment Selection [[3]](#Literature)
    * Causal Tree [[4]](#Literature) - Work-in-progress
* **Meta-learner algorithms**
    * S-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * T-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * X-learner [[5]](#Literature)
    * R-learner [[6]](#Literature)
    * Doubly Robust (DR) learner [[7]](#Literature)
    * TMLE learner [[8]](#Literature)
* **Instrumental variables algorithms**
    * 2-Stage Least Squares (2SLS)
    * Doubly Robust (DR) IV [[9]](#Literature)
* **Neural-network-based algorithms**
    * CEVAE [[10]](#Literature)
    * DragonNet [[11]](#Literature) - with `causalml[tf]` installation (see [Installation](#installation))
# Installation
Installation with `conda` is recommended. `conda` environment files for Python 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9 are available in the repository. To use models under the `inference.tf` module (e.g. `DragonNet`), additional dependency of `tensorflow` is required. For detailed instructions, see below.
## Install using `conda`:
### Install from `conda-forge`
Directly install from the conda-forge channel using conda.
```sh
$ conda install -c conda-forge causalml
```
### Install with the `conda` virtual environment
This will create a new `conda` virtual environment named `causalml-[tf-]py3x`, where `x` is in `[6, 7, 8, 9]`. e.g. `causalml-py37` or `causalml-tf-py38`. If you want to change the name of the environment, update the relevant YAML file in `envs/`
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml/envs/
$ conda env create -f environment-py38.yml	# for the virtual environment with Python 3.8 and CausalML
$ conda activate causalml-py38
(causalml-py38)
```
### Install `causalml` with `tensorflow`
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml/envs/
$ conda env create -f environment-tf-py38.yml	# for the virtual environment with Python 3.8 and CausalML
$ conda activate causalml-tf-py38
(causalml-tf-py38) pip install -U numpy			# this step is necessary to fix [#338](https://github.com/uber/causalml/issues/338)
```
## Install using `pip`:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ pip install causalml
```
### Install `causalml` with `tensorflow`
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml
$ pip install -r requirements-tf.txt
$ pip install causalml[tf]
$ pip install -U numpy							# this step is necessary to fix [#338](https://github.com/uber/causalml/issues/338)
```
## Install from source:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/uber/causalml.git
$ cd causalml
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ python setup.py build_ext --inplace
$ python setup.py install
```
# Quick Start
## Average Treatment Effect Estimation with S, T, X, and R Learners
```python
from causalml.inference.meta import LRSRegressor
from causalml.inference.meta import XGBTRegressor, MLPTRegressor
from causalml.inference.meta import BaseXRegressor
from causalml.inference.meta import BaseRRegressor
from xgboost import XGBRegressor
from causalml.dataset import synthetic_data
y, X, treatment, _, _, e = synthetic_data(mode=1, n=1000, p=5, sigma=1.0)
lr = LRSRegressor()
te, lb, ub = lr.estimate_ate(X, treatment, y)
print('Average Treatment Effect (Linear Regression): {:.2f} ({:.2f}, {:.2f})'.format(te[0], lb[0], ub[0]))
xg = XGBTRegressor(random_state=42)
te, lb, ub = xg.estimate_ate(X, treatment, y)
print('Average Treatment Effect (XGBoost): {:.2f} ({:.2f}, {:.2f})'.format(te[0], lb[0], ub[0]))
nn = MLPTRegressor(hidden_layer_sizes=(10, 10),
                 learning_rate_init=.1,
                 early_stopping=True,
                 random_state=42)
te, lb, ub = nn.estimate_ate(X, treatment, y)
print('Average Treatment Effect (Neural Network (MLP)): {:.2f} ({:.2f}, {:.2f})'.format(te[0], lb[0], ub[0]))
xl = BaseXRegressor(learner=XGBRegressor(random_state=42))
te, lb, ub = xl.estimate_ate(X, treatment, y, e)
print('Average Treatment Effect (BaseXRegressor using XGBoost): {:.2f} ({:.2f}, {:.2f})'.format(te[0], lb[0], ub[0]))
rl = BaseRRegressor(learner=XGBRegressor(random_state=42))
te, lb, ub =  rl.estimate_ate(X=X, p=e, treatment=treatment, y=y)
print('Average Treatment Effect (BaseRRegressor using XGBoost): {:.2f} ({:.2f}, {:.2f})'.format(te[0], lb[0], ub[0]))
```

## Interpretable Causal ML
Causal ML provides methods to interpret the treatment effect models trained as follows:
### Meta Learner Feature Importances
```python
from causalml.inference.meta import BaseSRegressor, BaseTRegressor, BaseXRegressor, BaseRRegressor
from causalml.dataset.regression import synthetic_data
# Load synthetic data
y, X, treatment, tau, b, e = synthetic_data(mode=1, n=10000, p=25, sigma=0.5)
w_multi = np.array(['treatment_A' if x==1 else 'control' for x in treatment]) # customize treatment/control names
slearner = BaseSRegressor(LGBMRegressor(), control_name='control')
slearner.estimate_ate(X, w_multi, y)
slearner_tau = slearner.fit_predict(X, w_multi, y)
model_tau_feature = RandomForestRegressor()  # specify model for model_tau_feature
slearner.get_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, model_tau_feature=model_tau_feature,
                        normalize=True, method='auto', features=feature_names)
# Using the feature_importances_ method in the base learner (LGBMRegressor() in this example)
slearner.plot_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, normalize=True, method='auto')
# Using eli5's PermutationImportance
slearner.plot_importance(X=X, tau=slearner_tau, normalize=True, method='permutation')
# Using SHAP
shap_slearner = slearner.get_shap_values(X=X, tau=slearner_tau)
# Plot shap values without specifying shap_dict
slearner.plot_shap_values(X=X, tau=slearner_tau)
# Plot shap values WITH specifying shap_dict
slearner.plot_shap_values(X=X, shap_dict=shap_slearner)
# interaction_idx set to 'auto' (searches for feature with greatest approximate interaction)
slearner.plot_shap_dependence(treatment_group='treatment_A',
                              feature_idx=1,
                              X=X,
                              tau=slearner_tau,
                              interaction_idx='auto')
