This package provides efficient estimators and uniformly valid confidence intervals for various low-dimensional causal/structural parameters appearing in high-dimensional approximately sparse models. The package includes functions for fitting heteroskedastic robust Lasso regressions with non-Gaussian erros and for instrumental variable (IV) and treatment effect estimation in a high-dimensional setting. Moreover, the methods enable valid post-selection inference. Moreover, a theoretically grounded, data-driven choice of the penalty level is provided.
