弱依赖高维动态面板中的异质性处理效应推断
- 研究问题
- 在存在弱时间依赖、个体异质性和高维协变量的动态面板中，如何估计条件平均处理效应并对其参数进行同时推断？
- 方法与思路
- 作者使用排除邻近观测的交叉拟合进行正交化，以残差化处理与协变量交互项构建 lasso 学习器，再用去偏方法推断。
- 材料陈述的贡献
- 摘要称方法适用于弱依赖面板；当处理效应函数复杂度较低时，正交学习器可更快收敛，并提供参数同时推断。
- 阅读关注点
- 应核对弱依赖与邻近排除规则、第一阶段学习误差要求，以及条件处理效应的识别和个体效应弱稀疏建模条件。
- 阅读边界
- 仅据所给 Crossref 摘要，不能认为任意机器学习方法或动态面板均适用；识别条件、收敛率及版本变化未说明。
原文摘要
This paper provides estimation and inference methods for conditional average treatment effects (CATE) characterized by a high‐dimensional parameter in both homogeneous cross‐sectional and unit‐heterogeneous dynamic panel data settings. In our leading example, we model CATE by interacting the base treatment variable with explanatory variables. The first step of our procedure is orthogonalization, where we partial out the controls and unit effects from the outcome and the base treatment and take the cross‐fitted residuals. This step uses a novel generic cross‐fitting method that we design for weakly dependent time series and panel data. This method “leaves out the neighbors” when fitting nuisance components, and we theoretically power it by using Strassen's coupling. As a result, we can rely on any modern machine learning method in the first step, provided it learns the residuals well enough. Second, we construct an orthogonal (or residual) learner of CATE—the lasso CATE—that regresses the outcome residual on the vector of interactions of the residualized treatment with explanatory variables. If the complexity of CATE function is simpler than that of the first‐stage regression, the orthogonal learner converges faster than the single‐stage regression‐based learner. Third, we perform simultaneous inference on parameters of the CATE function using debiasing. We also can use ordinary least squares in the last two steps when CATE is low‐dimensional. In heterogeneous panel data settings, we model the unobserved unit heterogeneity as a weakly sparse deviation from Mundlak's (1978) model of correlated unit effects as a linear function of time‐invariant covariates and make use of L1‐penalization to estimate these models. We demonstrate our methods by estimating price elasticities of groceries based on scanner data. We note that our results are new even for the cross‐sectional (i.i.d.) case.
