Sintesi	Machine learning-augmented inverse probability weighting replaces parametric logistic regression with flexible ML algorithms to estimate treatment propensity scores, then reweights the sample to balance treated and control units. By leveraging data-adaptive learners such as lasso, random forests, or gradient boosting, ML-IPW controls for high-dimensional and nonlinear confounders that classical IPW misses, while retaining the intuitive weighting framework.	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.
