Measuring Variable Importance in Heterogeneous Treatment Effects with Confidence

Published in ICML, 2025

PermuCATE is a new method for assessing variable importance in estimating heterogeneous treatment effects. It improves on existing techniques by reducing variance, making it more reliable—especially in low-data settings like biomedical applications.
