Identification-robust inference for the LATE with high-dimensional covariates
高维协变量下局部平均处理效应的识别稳健推断
This paper presents an inference method for the local average treatment effect (LATE) in the presence of high-dimensional covariates, regardless of the strength of identification. We propose an orthogonalized Anderson-Rubin test statistic that maintains uniformly valid asymptotic size. We provide an easy-to-implement algorithm for inferring the high-dimensional LATE by inverting our test statistic and employing the double/debiased machine learning method. Simulation results…
