文摘This paper presents the Bayes estimation and empirical Bayes estimation of causal effects in a counterfactual model. It also gives three kinds of prior distribution of the assumptions of replaceability. The experiment shows that empirical Bayes estimation is better than other estimations when not knowing which assumption is true.
