Nonignorable Missing Data, Single Index Propensity Score and Profile Synthetic Distribution Function
不可忽略缺失数据、单指标倾向得分与剖面合成分布函数
In missing data problems, missing not at random is difficult to handle since the response probability or propensity score is confounded with the outcome data model in the likelihood. Existing works often assume the propensity score is known up to a finite dimensional parameter. We relax this assumption and consider an unspecified single index model for the propensity score. A pseudo-likelihood based on the complete data is constructed by profiling out a synthetic…
