Causal mediation analysis with random interventions has become an area of significant interest for understanding time-varying effects with longitudinal and survival outcomes. To tackle causal and statistical challenges due to the complex longitudinal data structure with time-varying confounders, competing risks, and informative censoring, there exists a general desire to combine machine learning techniques and semiparametric theory. In this manuscript, we focus on targeted maximum likelihood estimation (TMLE) of longitudinal natural direct and indirect effects defined with random interventions. The proposed estimators are multiply robust, locally efficient, and directly estimate and update the conditional densities that factorize data likelihoods. We utilize the highly adaptive lasso (HAL) and projection representations to derive new estimators (HAL-EIC) of the efficient influence curves of longitudinal mediation problems and propose a fast one-step TMLE algorithm using HAL-EIC while preserving the asymptotic properties. The proposed method can be generalized for other longitudinal causal parameters that are smooth functions of data likelihoods, and thereby provides a novel and flexible statistical toolbox.
靶向深度生存对比:神经网络下处理特定生存收益的有效推断
Neural survival models are increasingly asked to support counterfactual claims---how much a treatment would change survival in a population---rather than only prognostic risk scores. Answering such questions from observational data requires valid inference for treatment-specific survival contrasts under confounding and covariate-dependent censoring, targets for which standard deep survival estimators are biased and provide no honest uncertainty. We propose Targeted Deep…
竞争风险生存结局的亚组平均处理效应双重稳健目标估计
In recent years, precision treatment strategies have gained significant attention in medical research, particularly for patient care. We propose a novel framework for estimating subgroup average treatment effects (ATE) in time-to-event data with competing risks, using ICU patients with sepsis as an illustrative example. Our approach, based on cumulative incidence functions and targeted maximum likelihood estimation (TMLE), achieves both asymptotic efficiency and double…
通向同一答案的三条路径:协调 AIPW、TMLE 与双重机器学习
Augmented inverse-probability weighting (AIPW), targeted maximum likelihood estimation (TMLE), and double/debiased machine learning (DML) are three routes to the same efficient influence function for the average treatment effect --- settled theory we treat as background. This tutorial's contribution is its worked, shared-nuisance reconciliation on real data: what a practitioner must actually match for the routes, and the software packages, to agree. Working the effect of…
内生性面板数据中连续处理效应的双重/去偏机器学习
We propose a double/debiased machine learning framework to estimate average derivative effects in nonparametric panel models with two-way fixed effects. It extends instrumental variable methods to panel settings, handles continuous treatments and various forms of endogeneity, and introduces a cross-fitting scheme to restore independence after eliminating time fixed effects. A penalized GMM debiasing term enables automatic debiased machine learning with endogeneity. Our…
构造目标最小损失/最大似然估计量:建立直觉的简单示例
Use of machine learning to estimate nuisance functions (e.g. outcomes models, propensity score models) in estimators used in causal inference is increasingly common, as it can mitigate bias due to model misspecification. However, it can be challenging to achieve valid inference (e.g., estimate valid confidence intervals). The efficient influence function (EIF) provides a recipe to go from a statistical estimand relevant to our causal question, to an estimator that can…
密集纵向数据的动态因果中介分析
Intensive longitudinal data, characterized by frequent measurements across numerous time points, are increasingly common due to advances in wearable devices and mobile health technologies. We consider evaluating causal mediation pathways between time-varying exposures, time-varying mediators, and a final, distal outcome using such data. Addressing mediation questions in these settings is challenging due to numerous potential exposures, complex mediation pathways, and…
