The estimation of Average Treatment Effect (ATE) as a causal parameter is carried out in two steps, where in the first step, the treatment and outcome are modeled to incorporate the potential confounders, and in the second step, the predictions are inserted into the ATE estimators such as the Augmented Inverse Probability Weighting (AIPW) estimator. Due to the concerns regarding the nonlinear or unknown relationships between confounders and the treatment and outcome, there has been an interest in applying non-parametric methods such as Machine Learning (ML) algorithms instead. Some literature proposes to use two separate Neural Networks (NNs) where there's no regularization on the network's parameters except the Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) in the NN's optimization. Our simulations indicate that the AIPW estimator suffers extensively if no regularization is utilized. We propose the normalization of AIPW (referred to as nAIPW) which can be helpful in some scenarios. nAIPW, provably, has the same properties as AIPW, that is, the double-robustness and orthogonality properties. Further, if the first step algorithms converge fast enough, under regulatory conditions, nAIPW will be asymptotically normal. We also compare the performance of AIPW and nAIPW in terms of the bias and variance when small to moderate L1 regularization is imposed on the NNs.

Individualized treatment rules (ITRs) formalize precision medicine by assigning treatments according to patient covariates, with the goal of maximizing expected clinical outcomes. Such rules are especially important when treatment effects vary across patients, as in chronic diseases where demographic, clinical, genetic, imaging, or biomarker information may modify the relative benefits of available therapies. Individualized treatment rules (ITRs) formalize precision medicine…
图分割贝叶斯因果森林:空间异质性处理效应估计
In spatial observational studies, treatment assignment and outcomes often exhibit spatial dependence patterns, and treatment effects may vary across space and subpopulations due to both measured and unmeasured spatially structured confounders. Accounting for spatial dependence while estimating heterogeneous treatment effects (HTEs) is a central task in spatial causal inference. Causal Bayesian additive regression tree methods are popular nonparametric methods for modeling…
整群随机试验中依从效应与网络因果效应的识别和有效估计
Treatment noncompliance is pervasive in infectious disease cluster-randomized trials. Although all individuals within a cluster are assigned the same treatment condition, the treatment uptake status may vary across individuals due to noncompliance. We propose a semiparametric framework to evaluate the individual compliance effect and network assignment effect within principal stratum exhibiting different patterns of noncompliance. The individual compliance effect captures…

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…
基于正交机器学习的非参数异质性因果中介分析
Causal mediation analysis decomposes the total effect of an intervention on an outcome into a direct pathway and an indirect pathway transmitted through a mediator, but standard methods typically summarize these pathways using population average effects. In many applications, however, the indirect effect may vary substantially across individual profiles. We propose an orthogonal statistical learning framework for estimating heterogeneous causal mediation effects conditional…
广义 Riesz 回归:基于 Bregman 散度拟合的去偏机器学习统一框架
Estimating the Riesz representer is central to debiased machine learning, yet the generator and representer model determine which regression directions their first-order conditions protect. We introduce generalized Riesz regression, which minimizes a Bregman divergence made observable by the Riesz identity. Squared and Kullback--Leibler-type choices recover Riesz regression, tailored loss minimization, and density-ratio objectives. For any twice-differentiable generator and…
