Estimating and obtaining reliable inference for the marginally adjusted causal dose-response curve for continuous treatments without relying on parametric assumptions is a well-known statistical challenge. Parametric models risk introducing significant bias through model misspecification, compromising the accurate representation of the underlying data and dose-response relationship. On the other hand, nonparametric models face difficulties as the dose-response curve is not pathwise differentiable, preventing consistent estimation at standard rates. The Highly Adaptive Lasso (HAL) maximum likelihood estimator offers a promising approach to this issue. In this paper, we introduce a HAL-based plug-in estimator for the causal dose-response curve, bridge theoretical development and empirical application, and assess its empirical performance against other estimators. This work emphasizes not just theoretical proofs, but also demonstrates their application through comprehensive simulations, thereby filling an essential gap between theory and practice. Our comprehensive simulations demonstrate that the HAL-based estimator achieves pointwise asymptotic normality with valid inference and consistently outperforms existing approaches for estimating the causal dose-response curve.
目标函数的目标化高度自适应Lasso最小损失估计
We propose a Targeted Highly Adaptive Lasso for estimation of non-pathwise differentiable functional parameters such as the dose-response curve (DRC) for continuous exposure. We assume the target function lies in the $k$-th order smoothness class used to define the $k$-th order Highly Adaptive Lasso (HAL), which can be well approximated by linear spans of $k$-th order spline basis functions. We construct a projection of the true target function onto a large finite…
连续时间靶向极大似然与高度自适应 Lasso 的干预特定复发事件期望次数估计
Longitudinal settings involving outcome, competing risks and censoring events occurring and recurring in continuous time are common in medical research, but are often analyzed with methods that do not allow for taking post-baseline information into account. In this work, we define statistical and causal target parameters via the g-computation formula by carrying out interventions directly on the product integral representing the observed data distribution in a…
未观测混杂下事件时间数据的二元变换模型:重访伊利诺伊再就业奖励实验
Motivated by empirical studies investigating treatment effects in survival analysis, we propose a bivariate transformation model to quantify the impact of a binary treatment on a time-to-event outcome. The model equations are connected through a bivariate Gaussian distribution, with the dependence parameter capturing unobserved confounding, and are specified as functions of additive predictors to flexibly account for the impacts of observed confounders. Moreover, the…
纵向中介分析的目标最大似然估计
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…
连续事件时间结局中特定时点干预效应的目标最大似然估计
Targeted maximum likelihood estimation is a general methodology combining flexible ensemble learning and semiparametric efficiency theory in a two-step procedure for estimation of causal parameters. Proposed targeted maximum likelihood procedures for survival and competing risks analysis have so far focused on events taken values in discrete time. We here present a targeted maximum likelihood estimation procedure for event times that take values in R+. We focuson the…
高维数据下的非可分模型
This paper studies non-separable models with a continuous treatment when the dimension of the control variables is high and potentially larger than the effective sample size. We propose a three-step estimation procedure to estimate the average, quantile, and marginal treatment effects. In the first stage we estimate the conditional mean, distribution, and density objects by penalized local least squares, penalized local maximum likelihood estimation, and numerical…
