Policy Learning via Doubly Robust Empirical Welfare Maximization over Trees

Learn optimal policies via doubly robust empirical welfare maximization over trees. Given reward estimates, the algorithm finds a rule-based treatment allocation, where the policy takes the form of a shallow decision tree that is globally optimal (or nearly so). Methods are described in Sverdrup, Kanodia, Zhou, Athey, and Wager (2020) , Athey and Wager (2021) , and Zhou, Athey, and Wager (2023) .
