The validity of two-step or plug-in inference methods is questioned in the Bayesian framework. We study semi-parametric models where the plug-in of a non-parametrically modelled nuisance component is used. We show that when the nuisance and targeted parameters satisfy a Neyman orthogonal score property, the approach of cutting feedback through a two-step procedure is a valid way of conducting Bayesian inference. Our method relies on a non-parametric Bayesian formulation based on the Dirichlet process and the Bayesian bootstrap. We show that the marginal posterior of the targeted parameter exhibits good frequentist properties despite not accounting for the inferential uncertainty of the nuisance parameter. We adopt this approach in Bayesian causal inference problems where the nuisance propensity score model is estimated to obtain marginal inference for the treatment effect parameter, and demonstrate that a plug-in of the propensity score has a negligible effect on marginal posterior inference for the causal contrast. We investigate the absence of Neyman orthogonality and exploit our findings to show that in conventional two-step procedures, the posterior distribution converges under weaker restrictions than those needed in the frequentist sequel. For a simple family of useful scores, we demonstrate that even in the absence of Neyman orthogonality, the posterior distribution is asymptotically unchanged by the estimation of the nuisance parameter, merely provided the latter estimator is consistent.
整群随机试验中因果中介效应的半参数贝叶斯推断
Cluster randomized trials (CRTs) are frequently used to evaluate interventions, yet conducting causal mediation analysis in these settings remains challenging, particularly when the mediator is measured at the cluster level and the number of clusters is small. Standard inference methods often rely on asymptotic assumptions that fail in finite-sample settings, leading to biased variance estimation and invalid confidence intervals. In this paper, we propose a robust inference…

We derive asymptotically optimal statistical decision rules for discrete choice problems when payoffs depend on a partially-identified parameter $θ$ and the decision maker can use a point-identified parameter $μ$ to deduce restrictions on $θ$. Examples include treatment choice under partial identification and pricing with rich unobserved heterogeneity. Our notion of optimality combines a minimax approach to handle the ambiguity from partial identification of $θ$ given $μ$ wit…
半参数后验修正
Abstract We present a new approach to semiparametric inference using corrected posterior distributions. The method allows us to leverage the adaptivity, regularization, and predictive power of nonparametric Bayesian procedures to estimate low-dimensional functionals of interest without being restricted by the holistic Bayesian formalism. Starting from a conventional posterior on the whole data-generating distribution, we correct the marginal posterior for each functional of…

We present a new approach to semiparametric inference using corrected posterior distributions. The method allows us to leverage the adaptivity, regularization and predictive power of nonparametric Bayesian procedures to estimate low-dimensional functionals of interest without being restricted by the holistic Bayesian formalism. Starting from a conventional nonparametric posterior, we target the functional of interest by transforming the entire distribution with a Bayesian…
半参数贝叶斯因果推断
We develop a semiparametric Bayesian approach for estimating the mean response in a missing data model with binary outcomes and a nonparametrically modelled propensity score. Equivalently, we estimate the causal effect of a treatment, correcting nonparametrically for confounding. We show that standard Gaussian process priors satisfy a semiparametric Bernstein–von Mises theorem under smoothness conditions. We further propose a novel propensity score-dependent prior that…
BART 模型的局部高斯过程外推及因果推断应用
Bayesian additive regression trees (BART) is a semi-parametric regression model offering state-of-the-art performance on out-of-sample prediction. Despite this success, standard implementations of BART typically provide inaccurate prediction and overly narrow prediction intervals at points outside the range of the training data. This paper proposes a novel extrapolation strategy that grafts Gaussian processes to the leaf nodes in BART for predicting points outside the range…
