pycausalgps

Causal Inference with Generalized Propensity Score
pycausalgps is a Python library for implementing matching on generalized propensity scores with continuous exposures. We have developed an innovative approach for estimating causal effects using observational data in settings with continuous exposures and introduced a new framework for GPS caliper matching that jointly matches on both the estimated GPS and exposure levels to fully adjust for confounding bias.
Setting Up Environment

Usage
Geneting synthetic data
from pycausalgps.base.utils import generate_syn_pop
data = generate_syn_pop(sample_size=1000,
seed_val=456,
outcome_sd=0.25,
gps_spec=1,
cova_spec=2)

Estimating GPS
from pycausalgps.base.utils import generate_syn_pop
from pycausalgps.base import GeneralizedPropensityScore

"cf2",
"cf3",

"cf6"],
"covariate_column_cat": ["cf5"],
"libs":{

gps = GeneralizedPropensityScore(data, gps_params)

results = gps.get_results()
gps_data = {
'data' : results.get("data"),
'gps_density' : results.get("gps_density")
}
