A preliminary schedule is:

  • Introduction, potential outcomes, basic counterfactual model
  • Horvitz-Thompson, standardisation, and double robust estimator of mean causal effect, asymptotics, semiparametric
  • Other methods: standardisation, matching, likelihood, marginal models
  • Graphical models (undirected, directed, mixed)
  • Causal graphs, nonparametric structural equations, interventions, SWIGS, adjustment sets, special cases(mediation, longitudinal studies, and/or linear models)
  • Instrumental variable regression, proximal inference
  • Causal discovery (faithfulness, Markov equivalence, testing methods

We provide full lecture notes to the course.
