Causal inference in high-dimensional generalized linear models with binary outcomes
Summary This paper proposes a debiased estimator for causal effects in high-dimensional generalized linear models with binary outcomes and general link functions. The estimator augments a regularized regression plug-in with weights computed from a single convex optimization that approximately balances link-derivative-weighted covariates and controls variance; it does not rely on estimated propensity scores. Under standard conditions, the estimator is $\sqrt{n}$-consistent…
