In recent years, orthogonal statistical learning has been widely recognized for its ability to reduce sensitivity with respect to nuisance parameters to estimate the target parameter, making it an important tool in causal inference, particularly in the estimation of the conditional average treatment effect (CATE). However, its application on conditional quantile treatment effect (CQTE), which offers a more comprehensive perspective on treatment effects than CATE, has not yet been explored comprehensively. In this article, we propose a novel method for learning CQTE. This method shares Neyman-orthogonal property, which produces CQTE estimators that are insensitive to small perturbations of nuisance functions. We first model the CQTE nonparametrically and use deep learning to estimate it. We establish the convergence rate of the neural network estimator, demonstrating that it achieves the minimax optimal rate of convergence (up to a polylogarithmic factor). This highlights deep learning’s ability to identify low-dimensional structures in high-dimensional data. Additionally, we then model CQTE linearly to facilitate interpretation and statistical inference. We prove that the corresponding coefficient and CQTE estimators achieve root-n consistency and asymptotic normality, even if the estimators of the nuisance parameters converge at a slower rate. Through empirical evaluation for numerical studies, we demonstrate the superiority of our method compared to competing methods.
The conditional average treatment effect (CATE) is frequently estimated in clinical studies to refute a homogeneous treatment effect hypothesis. Under this regime, all patients making up the population experience identical benefit from a given treatment relative to a comparator. Uncovering heterogeneous treatment effects through inference about the CATE, however, requires that covariates truly modifying the treatment effect be reliably collected at baseline. CATE-based…
多控制变量下工资不平等界的去偏推断
We study estimation and inference for a partially identified parameter whose identified set depends on a first-stage nuisance parameter that must itself be estimated. Combining the criterion-function approach with the theory of Neyman-orthogonal moments that underlies double/debiased machine learning, we propose a two-step procedure: the point-identified nuisance is estimated by flexible machine-learning methods, and the set-identified target is recovered as a level set of a…

There are many nonparametric objects of interest that are functionals of a conditional distribution, such as average treatment effects conditional on a low-dimensional set of covariates. We define a conditional influence function (CIF) as the Gateaux derivative of a conditional parameter with respect to perturbations of the conditional law of a single observation given the conditioning variable. CIFs generalize classical influence functions and can be used to (i) construct…
高维混杂下纵向数据的异质性分位数处理效应估计(第二版)
Causal inference plays a fundamental role in various real-world applications. However, in the motivating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) study, it is challenging to estimate the treatment effect of chemotherapy on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). First, the heterogeneous treatment effects vary across patient subgroups defined by baseline characteristics. Second, there exists a broad set of demographic, clinical and molecular variables act as potential confounders. Third,…
利用双重机器学习估计直接与间接分位数处理效应
We propose a framework to disentangle the quantile treatment effect of a binary treatment at a specific rank into an indirect quantile treatment effect that operates through a mediator and an unmediated direct quantile treatment effect. We establish identification results for these effects under the sequential ignorability assumption and propose double/debiased machine learning estimators, based on the efficient influence functions of the cumulative distribution functions of…
异质环境下的不变量分位数回归
In this paper, we propose an invariant quantile regression (IQR) framework specifically designed for multi-environment datasets, which captures the invariance across different environments. This framework is closely related to transfer learning, causal inference, and fair machine learning, and is motivated by scenarios in which the conditional probability of the response given covariates varies, while certain key variables remain invariant. This perspective differs notably…
