Description: An algorithm for flexible conditional density estimation based on
    application of pooled hazard regression to an artificial repeated measures
    dataset constructed by discretizing the support of the outcome variable. To
    facilitate flexible estimation of the conditional density, the highly
    adaptive lasso, a non-parametric regression function shown to estimate
    cadlag (RCLL) functions at a suitably fast convergence rate, is used. The
    use of pooled hazards regression for conditional density estimation as
    implemented here was first described for by Díaz and van der Laan (2011)
    <doi:10.2202/1557-4679.1356>. Building on the conditional density estimation
    utilities, non-parametric inverse probability weighted (IPW) estimators of
    the causal effects of additive modified treatment policies are implemented,
    using conditional density estimation to estimate the generalized propensity
    score. Non-parametric IPW estimators based on this can be coupled with sieve
    estimation (undersmoothing) of the generalized propensity score to attain
    the semi-parametric efficiency bound (per Hejazi, Benkeser, Díaz, and van
    der Laan <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2205.05777>).
