py-why / EconML

ALICE (Automated Learning and Intelligence for Causation and Economics) is a Microsoft Research project aimed at applying Artificial Intelligence concepts to economic decision making. One of its goals is to build a toolkit that combines state-of-the-art machine learning techniques with econometrics in order to bring automation to complex causal inference problems. To date, the ALICE Python SDK (econml) implements orthogonal machine learning algorithms such as the double machine learning work of Chernozhukov et al. This toolkit is designed to measure the causal effect of some treatment variable(s) t on an outcome variable y, controlling for a set of features x.

forestqin commented 7 months ago

Please HELP....thanks a lot!

I would like to install EconML by locally compiling mode

envs: OS: windows10 python:3.11

steps: 1) git clone from github by : git clone git@github.com:py-why/EconML.git 2) cd EconML 3) install: pip install --no-build-isolation --editable .

but, a error occurred like:

Error compiling Cython file:

          dlacpy(UPLO, &lda, &n, a, &lda, a_copy, &lda)
          if copy_b:
              dlacpy(UPLO, &ldb, &nrhs, b, &ldb, b_copy, &ldb)

          dgelsy(&m, &n, &nrhs, a_copy, &lda, b_copy, &ldb,

could anyone help me for this issue? thanks a lot

Hard to say what might be going wrong, but as a first step, maybe don't use the --no-build-isolation flag - it's possible you've already got a version of some package installed that would otherwise use a different version during build.
