This work addresses a foundational theoretical gap in causal inference for researchers and practitioners, but it is incremental as it proves an existing formula.
The paper tackled the problem of proving the Front-Door adjustment formula, a key concept in causal inference, and successfully provided a proof using the do-calculus.
We provide a proof of the the Front-Door adjustment formula using the do-calculus.
