causal-inference

What it costs to get the causal structure wrong, measured on data where the true effect is planted and therefore known exactly.

project what is measured result
01_adjustment_choice bias from adjusting for a confounder, collider, mediator or instrument the same adjustment removes a 25% bias in one structure and creates a 75% bias in another; R² prefers adjusting in all four and is right in one

Method

Data comes from linear structural equation models with chosen coefficients, so "bias" is the estimate minus a number that was set, not a comparison against another estimator. Every claim in a project README is checked against that project's results.json before it ships.

No neural networks, no GPU. NumPy and SciPy.
