DEEPCAUSAL Procedure
INFER Statement
INFER options;
The INFER statement specifies the parameters for inference. You can specify one or more of the following options:
-
OUT=libref.data-table
OUTEST=libref.data-table writes the estimation of the parameters of interest, policy evaluation, and policy comparison to the specified output data table. libref.data-table is a two-level name, where libref refers to the library, and data-table specifies the name of the output data table. For more information about this two-level name, see the DATA= option and the section Using CAS Sessions and CAS Engine Librefs.
- OUTDETAILS=libref.data-table
writes the details of the estimation, including
,
,
, the residual, and influence functions for each unit, to the specified output data table. libref.data-table is a two-level name, where libref refers to the library, and data-table specifies the name of the output data table. For more information about this two-level name, see the DATA= option and the section Using CAS Sessions and CAS Engine Librefs.
- POLICY=(policy-variable-list)
specifies the list of policy variables to be evaluated. All symbol names in the policy-variable-list must correspond to the policy variables; the symbol names are separated by spaces.
- POLICYCOMPARISON=(comparison-options)
-
specifies the options for policy comparison. You must specify the following comparison-options:
- BASE=(base-list)
specifies a list of policy variables, each of which is used as a base policy in the policy comparison. All symbol names in the base-list must correspond to the policy variables; the symbol names are separated by spaces.
- COMPARE=(compare-list)
specifies a list of policy variables, each of which is used to compare with each base policy that you specify in the BASE= option. All symbol names in the compare-list must correspond to the policy variables; the symbol names are separated by spaces.
