Résumé	Machine learning-augmented causal impact analysis combines quasi-experimental counterfactual reasoning with flexible ML prediction models to estimate the causal effect of an intervention on a time series outcome. Building on Brodersen et al.'s Bayesian structural time series (BSTS) framework and extended by double/debiased ML methods, it constructs a synthetic counterfactual from donor covariates and infers the treatment effect as the gap between observed and predicted post-intervention outcomes.	A panel event study estimates the dynamic causal effect of a treatment or policy by regressing an outcome on a full set of relative-time indicators — one for each period before and after the event — while controlling for unit and time fixed effects. The resulting coefficient plot shows how the treated units diverged from untreated units at each point in calendar time relative to their treatment date, making both pre-treatment trend violations and post-treatment effect trajectories immediately visible.
