Flexibly modeling how an entire density changes with covariates is an important but challenging generalization of mean and quantile regression. While existing methods for density regression primarily consist of covariate-dependent discrete mixture models, we consider a continuous latent variable model in general covariate spaces, which we call DR-BART. The prior mapping the latent variable to the observed data is constructed via a novel application of Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART). We prove that the posterior induced by our model concentrates quickly around true generative functions that are sufficiently smooth. We also analyze the performance of DR-BART on a set of challenging simulated examples, where it outperforms various other methods for Bayesian density regression. Lastly, we apply DR-BART to two real datasets from educational testing and economics, to study student growth and predict returns to education. Our proposed sampler is efficient and allows one to take advantage of BART's flexibility in many applied settings where the entire distribution of the response is of primary interest. Furthermore, our scheme for splitting on latent variables within BART facilitates its future application to other classes of models that can be described via latent variables, such as those involving hierarchical or time series data.
基于加性树模型的两样本密度比比较
The ratio of two densities provides a direct characterization of their differences. We consider the two-sample comparison problem by estimating this ratio given i.i.d. observations from two distributions. To this end, we propose additive tree models for density ratio estimation along with efficient algorithms using a new loss function, the balancing loss. The loss allows tree-based models to be trained using several algorithms originally designed for supervised learning,…
贝叶斯平滑分位数回归
The standard asymmetric Laplace framework for Bayesian quantile regression (BQR) suffers from a fundamental decision-theoretic misalignment, yielding biased finite-sample estimates, and precludes gradient-based computation due to non-smoothness. We propose Bayesian smoothed quantile regression (BSQR), a principled framework built on a kernel-smoothed, fully differentiable likelihood. Methodologically, the symmetrizing property of our objective reduces inferential bias and…
使用非线性筛方法推断时间序列非参数条件矩限制
This paper studies estimation of and inference on dynamic nonparametric conditional moment restrictions of high dimensional variables for weakly dependent data, where the unknown functions of endogenous variables can be approximated via nonlinear sieves such as neural networks and Gaussian radial bases. The true unknown functions and their sieve approximations are allowed to be in general weighted function spaces with unbounded supports, which is important for time series…
高维分位数预测的稀疏 PAC-Bayes 方法
Quantile regression, a robust method for estimating conditional quantiles, has advanced significantly in fields such as econometrics, statistics, and machine learning. In high-dimensional settings, where the number of covariates exceeds sample size, penalized methods like lasso have been developed to address sparsity challenges. Bayesian methods, initially connected to quantile regression via the asymmetric Laplace likelihood, have also evolved, though issues with posterior…
基于随机森林的分位数控制法
This paper studies robust inference procedure for treatment effects in panel data with flexible relationship across units via the random forest method. The key contribution of this paper is twofold. First, we propose a direct construction of prediction intervals for the treatment effect by exploiting the information of the joint distribution of the cross-sectional units using random forest. In particular, we propose a Quantile Control Method (QCM) using the Quantile Random…
BNPqte:用于分位数因果推断的贝叶斯非参数 R 实现
In this article, we introduce the BNPqte R package which implements the Bayesian nonparametric approach of Xu, Daniels and Winterstein (2018) for estimating quantile treatment effects in observational studies. This approach provides flexible modeling of the distributions of potential outcomes, so it is capable of capturing a variety of underlying relationships among the outcomes, treatments and confounders and estimating multiple quantile treatment effects simultaneously.…
