CausalPlayground, a Python library, addresses the limitations of current data-generating tools for synthetic causal effect research. It provides a standardized platform for generating, sampling, and sharing structural causal models (SCMs) with fine-grained control over SCMs, interventions, and dataset generation. This enables researchers to create comparable datasets for learning and quantitative research. By integrating with Gymnasium, the standard framework for reinforcement learning environments, CausalPlayground allows for online interaction with SCMs. This library aims to foster more efficient research in causal effects by providing a standardized platform for generating and sharing data.

Imagine you’re trying to understand how something works because you want to make it better. But sometimes, you can’t find the right information or tools to do that. That’s why scientists created CausalPlayground, a special tool that helps them create fake but realistic data to study and learn from. This tool is like a game where they can control what happens and see how things change. It’s like having a superpower to understand complex problems! With this tool, researchers can work more efficiently and make better discoveries.
