A module for spatial causal inference in Python. Docs are forthcoming.
For the Python package used to run the simulation experiments in Hoffman and Kedron (2023), please see spycause-experiments
.
The regression adjustments provided here address data settings with the following graph structure:
where $\pi(x, u) = P(Z = 1 \mid X = x, U = u)$ is the propensity score, $X$ is a set of observed confounders, and $U$ stands for all unobserved spatial confounders. $\pi$ is placed in a square node to indicate that it is not a random variable, and rather a deterministic function of random variables $X$ and $U$. We also provide adjustments to correct for spatial interference between locations (not depicted).
