            # CausalTensor
 CausalTensor is a python package for doing causal inference and policy evaluation using panel data. 


## What is CausalTensor
CausalTensor is a suite of tools for addressing questions like "What is the impact of strategy X to outcome Y" given time-series data colleting from multiple units. Answering such questions has wide range of applications from econometrics, operations research, business analytics, polictical science, to healthcare. Please visit our [complete documentation](https://causaltensor.readthedocs.io/) for more information. 

## Installing CausalTensor
CausalTensor is compatible with Python 3 or later and also depends on numpy. The simplest way to install CausalTensor and its dependencies is from PyPI with pip, Python's preferred package installer.

    $ pip install causaltensor

Note that CausalTensor is an active project and routinely publishes new releases. In order to upgrade CausalTensor to the latest version, use pip as follows.

    $ pip install -U causaltensor
    
## Using CausalTensor
We have implemented the following estimators including the traditional method Difference-in-Difference and recent proposed methods such as Synthetic Difference-in-Difference, Matrix Completion with Nuclear Norm Minimization, and De-biased Convex Panel Regression.
