AI models trained on the same data can disagree about patient risk, with disagreement potentially concentrated in clinically important subgroups. We propose V(S), a statistically grounded vulnerability index combining an observable lower-bound witness of model disagreement with clinical severity, and develop inference and multiplicity-adjustment procedures for auditing prespecified subgroups. We applied the framework to two large critical-care cohorts, MIMIC-IV (n = 65,078) for model development and eICU-CRD (n = 188,230 admissions, 208 hospitals) for external validation, comparing a random forest with logistic regression across 158 prespecified subgroups. The two primary models did not both satisfy the prespecified epsilon = 0.02 Rashomon-set tolerance: the logistic-regression AUC was 0.0488 below the best candidate-model AUC. The RF-LR discrimination gap is thus interpreted as disagreement between two specific models, not as a guaranteed lower bound on the full Rashomon set. Nine subgroups had discrimination gaps distinguishable from a prespecified clinical floor. The age >=80 and cardiac subgroup had the largest point estimate of V(S) (0.307), but was underpowered and did not meet the full high-priority decision rule. The univariate cardiac subgroup (V(S) = 0.193, 95% CI [0.163, 0.223]) was the only statistically distinguishable subgroup with adequate power. Post hoc analyses identified lactate as important for both models but did not establish a causal explanation for the disagreement. Four simulation studies quantified operating characteristics of the proposed procedures, including inflated small-sample detection rates and imperfect Wald-interval coverage. The framework offers a reproducible approach for ranking subgroup vulnerability to model disagreement while separating exploratory signals from adequately supported findings.
嵌套工具变量分析:转换者平均处理效应及可推广性
Instrumental variables (IVs) are widely used to estimate causal effects from non-randomized data. A canonical example is a randomized trial with noncompliance, in which the randomized treatment assignment serves as an IV for the non-ignorable treatment received. Under a monotonicity assumption, a valid IV nonparametrically identifies the average treatment effect among a latent complier subgroup, whose generalizability is often under debate. In many studies, there exist…
观察性时间序列动态因果效应的半参数推断
In observational time series, statistical inference for dynamic causal effects of a one-time intervention across horizons is complicated by high-dimensional observed pre-treatment information, unmeasured confounding, and serial dependence. To address these challenges, we develop a semiparametric framework for inference from a single serially dependent time series, integrating debiased machine learning with instrumental variables through buffered block cross-fitting. Under…
审查员工具变量设计的局部稳健半参数方法
I propose a locally robust semiparametric framework for estimating causal effects using examiner IV designs when adjustment for many or continuous covariates makes saturation infeasible or produces sparse cells. The key ingredient of this approach is an orthogonal moment function that removes the first-order effect of estimation errors in the two treatment regressions defining the examiner IV. I derive the orthogonal moment function and show that it remains valid under…
函数值参数的广义投影检验及其在结构性因果假设检验中的应用
Structural assumptions are central to the causal inference literature. In practice, it is often crucial to assess their validity or to test implications that follow from them. In many settings, such tests can be framed as evaluating whether a function-valued parameter equals zero. In this paper, we propose a class of generalized projection tests based on series estimators for function-valued parameters. We establish conditions under which the proposed tests are valid and…
对函数形式稳健的空间自回归双重/去偏机器学习推断
Spatial autoregressive inference is typically conditional on the spatial weights matrix, W, even though the underlying interaction structure is often unknown and empirical conclusions can be sensitive to its specification. This paper develops double/debiased machine learning inference for low-dimensional SAR parameters when the spatial interaction operator is learned flexibly from potentially endogenous characteristics. Within a maintained admissible support, interaction…
加性工具变量下连续处理效应的双重机器学习
Estimating causal effects of continuous treatments is a common problem in practice, for example, in studying average dose-response functions. Classical analyses typically assume that all confounders are fully observed, whereas in real-world applications, unmeasured confounding often persists. In this article, we propose a novel framework for the identification of average dose-response functions using instrumental variables, thereby mitigating bias induced by unobserved…
