摘要	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.	Difference-in-Differences is a causal-inference method that estimates the effect of an intervention by comparing how a treatment group and a control group change over time. Made famous by Card and Krueger's 1994 minimum-wage study and developed in Angrist and Pischke's Mostly Harmless Econometrics, it isolates the treatment effect as the difference between the two groups' before-after changes.
