Sintesi	Double/Debiased Machine Learning (DML), introduced by Chernozhukov et al. (2018), is a semiparametric framework for estimating causal or structural parameters in the presence of high-dimensional controls. It uses flexible machine learning methods to model nuisance functions—the conditional expectations of the outcome and the treatment given covariates—and then constructs a debiased estimator of the target parameter that achieves root-n consistency and valid inference despite the regularization bias inherent in high-dimensional settings.	Heterogeneous Treatment Effects is a machine-learning framework that estimates how a treatment effect varies across individuals — the conditional average treatment effect (CATE). It bundles meta-learner strategies such as the T-Learner, S-Learner, X-Learner and R-Learner alongside the causal forest of Wager and Athey (2018) and Künzel et al. (2019).
