Algebraically, principal components can be defined as the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a covariance or correlation matrix, but they are statistically meaningful as successive projections of the multivariate data in the direction of maximal variability. An attractive alternative in robust principal component analysis is to replace the classical variability measure, i.e. variance, by a robust dispersion measure. This projection‐pursuit approach was first proposed in Li & Chen (1985) as a method of constructing a robust scatter matrix. Recent unpublished work of C. Croux and A. Ruiz‐Gazen provided the influence functions of the resulting principal components. The present paper focuses on the asymptotic distributions of robust principal components. In particular, we obtain the asymptotic normality of the principal components that maximise a robust dispersion measure. We also explain the need to use a dispersion functional with a continuous influence function.
平均处理效应局部化:合成控制中的投影方法
Many real-world policies and business interventions require assessing short-term effects to inform timely decisions, even though most causal inference methods focus on long-term average treatment effects. In this article, we introduce average treatment effect localization (ATEL), which captures localized, short-term policy impacts in panel data settings with a single treated unit and provides early indicators of policy impact. To accommodate both time-varying and nonlinear…
不可观测异质性的去偏机器学习:高维面板与测量误差模型
Developing robust inference for models with nonparametric Unobserved Heterogeneity (UH) is both important and challenging. We propose novel Debiased Machine Learning (DML) procedures for valid inference on functionals of UH, allowing for partial identification of multivariate target and high-dimensional nuisance parameters. Our main contribution is a full characterization of all relevant Neyman-orthogonal moments in models with nonparametric UH, where relevance means…
潜在结果变量因果效应的非参数识别与估计
How should researchers conduct causal inference when the outcome of interest is latent and measured imperfectly by multiple indicators? We develop a general nonparametric framework for identifying and estimating average treatment effects on latent outcomes in randomized experiments. We show that latent-outcome estimation faces a fundamental but overlooked noncomparability problem due to measurement-set dependence: adding, removing, or replacing measurement targets a…
大面板中的简洁、无需特定参数设定的因果推断
We propose a simple and transparent approach to causal inference using panel data with a large number of units and periods. Instead of imposing a particular parametric specification on the untreated potential outcomes, we assume they follow a nonparametric nonseparable factor model. We use long pre-treatment outcome histories to construct a measure of similarity between the latent factors of different units. Using this measure, we impute missing counterfactual means and…
通过团搜索识别非线性且相关的潜在因子结构
Learning the structure of latent factor models involves two central challenges: (1) estimating the number of latent factors and (2) learning the support of the mapping from latent variables to observed variables. This is especially challenging for nonparametric regimes and nonlinear settings. We propose a method for latent structure learning, based on pairwise dependence measures on the observed variables using a graph-theoretic representation. We show that both the number…
Beta 排序组合的计量经济学性质
Beta-sorted portfolios---portfolios comprised of assets with similar covariation with selected risk factors---are a popular tool in empirical finance to analyze models of (conditional) expected returns. Despite their widespread use, little is known of their econometric properties in contrast to comparable procedures such as two-pass regressions. We formally investigate the properties of beta-sorted portfolio returns by casting the procedure as a two-step nonparametric…
