Very general and ambitious approach for representing the full continuous conceptual spectrum of Pearl's Causal Ladder, and ability to model and learning parts of this from Data.

Discussed by Prof. van der Shaar at ICML2023 workshop on Counterfactuals.

Question: how does this notion of hypothesis space relate to causal inference and reasoning?

To avoid making false conclusions, studies must identify all the sources of variation. Is this is even possible in most caes?

Matching approach to dealing with sampling bias. Basically use some intrinsic, or other, metric about the situations to cluster them so that "similar" situations will be dealt with similiarly. Then analysis is carried out on those clusters. Number of clusters has to be defined, some method, like k-means, if often used. Depends a lot on the similarity metric, the clustering approach, other assumptions
