Implements the Bayesian Synthetic Control method for causal inference in comparative case studies. This package provides tools for estimating treatment effects in settings with a single treated unit and multiple control units, allowing for uncertainty quantification and flexible modeling of time-varying effects. The methodology is based on the paper by Vives and Martinez (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2206.01779>.
