Stochastic Tree Ensembles (XBART and BART) for Supervised Learning and Causal Inference
Description
Flexible stochastic tree ensemble software. Robust implementations of Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) (Chipman, George, McCulloch (2010) <doi:10.1214/09-AOAS285>) for supervised learning and Bayesian Causal Forests (BCF) (Hahn, Murray, Carvalho (2020) <doi:10.1214/19-BA1195>) for causal inference. Enables model serialization and parallel sampling and provides a low-level interface for custom stochastic forest samplers. Includes the grow-from-root algorithm for accelerated forest sampling (He and Hahn (2021) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2021.1942012>), a log-linear leaf model for forest-based heteroskedasticity (Murray (2020) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2020.1813587>), and the cloglog BART model of Alam and Linero (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2502.00606> for ordinal outcomes.
