Bayesian Nonparametric Causal Inference: Information Rates and Learning Algorithms

We investigate the problem of estimating the causal effect of a treatment on individual subjects from observational data; this is a central problem in various application domains, including healthcare, social sciences, and online advertising. Within the Neyman-Rubin potential outcomes model, we use...
