Sintesi	Machine learning-augmented DiD combines the classic difference-in-differences identification strategy with flexible ML estimators for nuisance functions — the propensity score and the outcome regression — to obtain valid causal estimates even when treatment selection and outcome dynamics are complex, high-dimensional, or nonlinear. The approach, rooted in double/debiased machine learning (Chernozhukov et al., 2018) and doubly-robust DiD (Sant'Anna & Zhao, 2020), guards against misspecification bias while preserving the core DiD logic of before-after, treated-versus-control comparisons.	Dynamic Difference-in-Differences extends the classic DiD framework to settings where units adopt treatment at different times. Rather than collapsing all variation into a single 2x2 comparison, it estimates group-time average treatment effects for each adoption cohort at each calendar period, then aggregates them into interpretable summaries of the causal effect over event time.
