Provides a set of functions for counterfactual decomposition (cfdecomp). The functions available in this package decompose differences in an outcome attributable to a mediating variable (or sets of mediating variables) between groups based on counterfactual (causal inference) theory. By using Monte Carlo (MC) integration (simulations based on empirical estimates from multivariable models) we provide added flexibility compared to existing (analytical) approaches, at the cost of computational power or time. The added flexibility means that we can decompose difference between groups in any outcome or and with any mediator (any variable type and distribution). See Sudharsanan & Bijlsma (2019) <doi:10.4054/MPIDR-WP-2019-004> for more information.

A simple, fast algorithm to find the neighbors and similarities of users in user-based filtering systems,
             to break free from the complex computation of existing similarity formulas and the ability to solve big data.

Facilitates the identification of counterfactual queries in
 structural causal models via the ID* and IDC* algorithms

 Provides a simple interface for defining causal diagrams and counterfactual 
 conjunctions. Construction of parallel worlds graphs and counterfactual graphs 
 is carried out automatically based on the counterfactual query and the causal 
 diagram. See Tikka, S. (2023) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2023-053> for a tutorial of 
 the package.
