In a tie-breaker design (TBD), subjects with high values of a running variable are given some (usually desirable) treatment, subjects with low values are not, and subjects in the middle are randomized. TBDs are intermediate between regression discontinuity designs (RDDs) and randomized controlled trials (RCTs). TBDs allow a tradeoff between the resource allocation efficiency of an RDD and the statistical efficiency of an RCT. We study a model where the expected response is one multivariate regression for treated subjects and another for control subjects. We propose a prospective D-optimality, analogous to Bayesian optimal design, to understand design tradeoffs without reference to a specific data set. For given covariates, we show how to use convex optimization to choose treatment probabilities that optimize this criterion. We can incorporate a variety of constraints motivated by economic and ethical considerations. In our model, D-optimality for the treatment effect coincides with D-optimality for the whole regression, and, without constraints, an RCT is globally optimal. We show that a monotonicity constraint favoring more deserving subjects induces sparsity in the number of distinct treatment probabilities. We apply the convex optimization solution to a semi-synthetic example involving triage data from the MIMIC-IV-ED database.
SBI:贝叶斯因果推断的基于模拟的可识别性检验
A growing family of approaches to causal inference rely on Bayesian formulations of assumptions that go beyond causal graph structure. For example, Bayesian approaches have been developed for analyzing instrumental variable designs, regression discontinuity designs, and within-subjects designs. This paper introduces simulation-based identifiability (SBI), a procedure for testing the identifiability of queries in Bayesian causal inference approaches that are implemented as…
BGM-IV:面向高维协变量工具变量回归的贝叶斯生成建模
Instrumental-variable (IV) regression enables causal estimation under endogeneity, but modern IV problems often involve nonlinear structural effects and high-dimensional covariates. Existing methods typically operate in observed or generic learned feature spaces, and they often yield point estimates without uncertainty quantification. We introduce BGM-IV, a Bayesian generative modeling approach that performs nonlinear IV regression through posterior inference in a causally…
不完全依从下利用树方法估计异质性因果效应
We study the impact of conditional complier average causal effect (CCACE) estimation methods on the performance of subgroup discovery and heterogeneous causal effect estimation under imperfect compliance. Building on the Bayesian Causal Forest with Instrumental Variable (BCF-IV) (Bargagli-Stoffi et al. (2022)) method, we introduce a two-step, model-agnostic approach that allows any suitable machine learning method to be used for the CCACE estimation in the first step.…
带工具变量的收缩贝叶斯因果森林
Discovering interpretable subgroups whose complier effects deviate from the average is a central goal of instrumental variable analysis under imperfect compliance, yet existing tree-based methods degrade when most covariates are irrelevant to the effect. We propose Shrinkage Bayesian Causal Forest with Instrumental Variable (SBCF-IV) for discovering and estimating subgroups with heterogeneous Complier Average Causal Effects (CACE) in sparse high-dimensional settings. SBCF-IV…
修正局部错设的 GMM:经验贝叶斯方法
Econometric models offer parsimonious but inexact approximations to data-generating processes. This paper studies the generalized method of moments (GMM) when exchangeable specification errors of order $n^{-1/2}$ contaminate the moment conditions. I develop estimators for the mean and variance of these specification errors, establishing their consistency in an asymptotic framework where the number of overidentifying restrictions grows with the sample size. These…
计数型中间变量的主分层与 BART:生育对女性就业的效应
Estimating the causal effect of fertility on women's employment is challenging because fertility and labour-market decisions are jointly determined. Instrumental-variable strategies are widely used, but credible instruments are rare and their validity often depends on covariates. Two-stage least squares, the dominant implementation, does not flexibly accommodate covariate-dependent instrument validity and is poorly suited to count-valued treatment and effect heterogeneity…
