GPCERF

Gaussian processes for the estimation of causal exposure-response curves (GP-CERF)

Summary

Gaussian Process (GP) approach for nonparametric modeling.

Provides a non-parametric Bayesian framework based on Gaussian process priors for estimating causal effects of a continuous exposure and detecting change points in the causal exposure response curves using observational data.
