Description
Hi! I am trying to import the causal forest regressor as below but it throws an error. Also tried the second script which seems the right path but still shows errors. Can you help? @jeongyoonlee
from causalml.inference.tree import CausalRandomForestRegressor
from causalml.inference.tree.causal.causalforest import CausalRandomForestRegressor
ImportError Traceback (most recent call last)

ImportError: cannot import name '_criterion' from partially initialized module 'causalml.inference.tree._tree' (most likely due to a circular import) (/content/causalml/causalml/inference/tree/_tree/init.py)
NOTE: If your import is failing due to a missing package, you can
manually install dependencies using either !pip or !apt.

Research direction
Reproduce the failing imports from causalml.inference.tree and causalml.inference.tree.causal.causalforest in the reported notebook environment. Then inspect causalml/inference/tree/_tree/_classes.py and its imports of _criterion, _splitter, and _tree. Done means the documented CausalRandomForestRegressor import succeeds without the partial-initialization error.
