In many statistical settings, the available data and maintained assumptions do not suffice to uniquely identify the model parameters of interest. In such cases, one can only identify sets which are guaranteed to contain the true parameters. These are often characterized through linear programs that optimize over models compatible with the observed data. These programs can be infinite-dimensional in the optimizer and the number of constraints. We provide a unified way to characterize and solve such optimization problems by phrasing them as optimal transport problems on path spaces. This allows us to regularize the problem with an entropy penalty, recasting it as a multi-marginal entropic optimal transport problem, which can be solved efficiently via Sinkhorn iterations. In addition, it allows us to establish convergence of the regularized value to the sharpest bound, derive consistency rates for a plug-in estimator, and obtain asymptotic distribution for approximate bounds. The method is general and accommodates settings ranging from instrumental variable models with continuous variables to welfare estimation in heterogeneous demand models. We verify the statistical and computational properties in simulations and provide an application to demand estimation.
高维工具变量模型中的不适定估计
This paper is concerned with inference about low-dimensional components of a high-dimensional parameter vector β0 which is identified through instrumental variables. We allow for eigenvalues of the expected outer product of included and excluded covariates, denoted by M, to shrink to zero as the sample size increases. We propose a novel estimator based on desparsification of an instrumental variable Lasso estimator, which is a regularized version of 2SLS with an additional…
测度线性表示模型中识别、计算与推断的对抗方法
We develop a framework for identification, computation, and inference in econometric models with a linear-in-measures representation. These models express maintained restrictions as moment conditions linear in the joint probability measure of observed and latent inputs, and map that measure linearly to the distribution of outputs, even with nonlinear outcome equations. We construct an adversarial discrepancy function whose zeros characterize the identified set for structural…
扰动效用模型的 Fenchel–Young 估计量
Perturbed Utility Models (PUMs) represent discrete choice as utility maximization under convex perturbation or regularization, encompassing a broad class of choice models, including Multinomial Logit (MNL) and models that permit zero choice probabilities. Because, for general perturbations, maximum likelihood may be non-convex, and the negative log-likelihood is infinite when a sparse model assigns zero probability to an observed choice, we specialize the Fenchel--Young…
从密集网格到有效推断:非参数随机系数模型的正则化偏差处理
This paper develops an inference procedure for average functionals of random-coefficient distributions, such as mean willingness-to-pay and average elasticities, when the distribution is estimated nonparametrically using the penalized fixed-grid estimator of Heiss, Hetzenecker, and Osterhaus (2022). We establish asymptotic normality of the corresponding penalized plug-in estimator centered at the functional evaluated at the penalized pseudo-true value and propose a…
高维稀疏情境信息下组合优化器的学习后推断:最小方向扰动方法
We study post-learning inference for structural properties of data-dependent combinatorial optimizers. The target is whether an oracle optimizer, rather than a latent parameter or smooth functional, belongs to a prescribed class, such as a category-mix, inventory, or resource-feasibility class. We focus on a high-dimensional contextual multinomial logit model with sequentially adaptive data collection, where the parameter-to-optimizer map is discontinuous and the policy…
离线强化学习与逆强化学习讲义(二):逆强化学习与动态离散选择基础
In the forward reinforcement-learning problem, the reward is fixed and known; the learner is asked to find a good policy or value function. Here we turn the question around. Given offline data generated by an expert, can we recover the reward the expert was optimizing? This is the inverse reinforcement learning problem, and remarkably, two communities, structural econometricians studying dynamic discrete choice (DDC) and machine learners studying entropy-regularized IRL,…
