সারসংক্ষেপ	Machine learning-augmented entropy balancing (ML-EB) combines Hainmueller's entropy balancing reweighting scheme with a machine-learning outcome model to produce a doubly-robust causal estimator. By jointly optimising covariate balance weights and a flexible predicted-outcome adjustment, ML-EB delivers consistent treatment-effect estimates even when either the weighting or the outcome model is misspecified, and it handles high-dimensional covariate spaces that classical entropy balancing cannot easily balance.	Inverse Probability Weighting is a causal-inference method that assigns each observation a weight equal to the inverse of its probability of receiving the treatment it actually received. Introduced by Robins, Hernán and Brumback (2000) for marginal structural models, it builds a pseudo-population in which treatment is independent of measured confounders, balancing selection bias.
