      Causal inference from complex longitudinal data (English)
      0 references
      In the eighties the author has introduced a formal theory of conterfactual causal inference [see, e.g., Math. Modelling 7, 1393-1512 (1986; Zbl 0614.62136)]. He has defined and studied causally interpreted structured tree graphs (CISTGs) and randomized CISTGs. Later (in 1995) he proved that the causal directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) introduced by Pearl, Spirtes, Glymour and Scheines are particular RCISTGs. This paper includes a summary and unification of the whole theory. Special attention is devoted to two methods of estimation: estimation of the conditional probabilities in the \(G\)-computation algorithm and \(G\)-estimation of structural nested models. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0859.00026].
