Buja 等对“广义线性模型参数的弱假设推断”的讨论
We thank the authors for their stimulating article. At the highest level, it agrees with our thinking as expressed in the second of two articles in Statistical Science (Buja et al., 2019). The guiding principle is to focus on quantities of interest that are meaningful statistical functionals, beyond the statistical models that motivate them, even when those models are fully misspecified. In some form, this focus has existed for decades in the semi-parametric literature. We…
