Sintesi	Machine learning-augmented regression discontinuity design (ML-RDD) combines the sharp identification logic of classical RDD — exploiting a known assignment cutoff in a running variable — with flexible, data-adaptive ML methods for bandwidth selection, conditional mean estimation, and covariate adjustment. The goal is to recover a more accurate and less assumption-laden estimate of the local average treatment effect at the threshold.	Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Design (Fuzzy RDD) estimates causal effects when eligibility for a treatment is determined by a threshold on a running variable but actual take-up of that treatment is imperfect — some eligible units do not receive treatment and some ineligible units do. The cutoff acts as an instrument, and the estimand is a Local Average Treatment Effect (LATE) for compliers near the threshold.
