Many economic parameters are identified by ``thin sets'' (submanifolds with Lebesgue measure zero) and hence difficult to recover from data in an ambient space. This paper provides a unified theory for estimation and inference of such ``thin-set'' identified functionals. We show that thin sets are \emph{not} equally thin: their intrinsic dimensionality $m$ matters in a precise manner. For a nonparametric regression $h_0$ with Hölder smoothness $s$ and $d$-dimensional covariates in the ambient space, we show that $n^{-\frac{s}{2s+d-m}}$ is the minimax optimal rate of estimating linear and nonlinear (e.g., quadratic, upper contour) integrals of $h_0$ on an $m$-dimensional submanifold ($0\leq m < d$), which is the fastest possible attainable rate among all estimators. The minimax lower bound rate result is generalized to estimating submanifold integrals when $h_0$ is a nonparametric density and a nonparametric instrumental variable function. The asymptotic normality of t statistics is established via sieve Riesz representation, and the corresponding inference is computed using Sobol points.
连接局部与总体因果效应:近端工具变量方法
Instrumental variable (IV) methods address treatment endogeneity, but with non-compliance and heterogeneous treatment effects a binary instrument generally identifies the local average treatment effect (LATE) among compliers rather than the population average treatment effect (ATE). When treatment effects and compliance probabilities are heterogeneous and dependent through latent factors, the ATE need not be identified by IV variation alone. We develop a proximal…
双框抽样框架下的半参数有效数据整合
Integrating probability and non-probability samples is increasingly important, yet unknown non-probability inclusion mechanisms complicate identification and efficient estimation. We develop semiparametric theory for dual-frame data integration and propose two complementary estimators. The first models the conditional inclusion probability parametrically and, under correct specification, attains the semiparametric efficiency bound. The probability sample serves as an…
空间函数对函数分位数回归
This paper introduces a novel penalized spatial function-on-function quantile regression framework for analyzing spatially indexed functional data, bridging a critical gap between spatial functional models and quantile regression. Our work makes three key contributions. First, we propose the first spatial function-on-function quantile regression model that jointly accounts for spatial correlation across curves through a functional spatial autoregressive structure while…
加性工具变量下连续处理效应的双重机器学习
Estimating causal effects of continuous treatments is a common problem in practice, for example, in studying average dose-response functions. Classical analyses typically assume that all confounders are fully observed, whereas in real-world applications, unmeasured confounding often persists. In this article, we propose a novel framework for the identification of average dose-response functions using instrumental variables, thereby mitigating bias induced by unobserved…
核工具变量回归的一致推断
Instrumental variable regression is a foundational tool for causal analysis across the social and biomedical sciences. Recent advances use kernel methods to estimate nonparametric causal relationships, with general data types, while retaining a simple closed-form expression. Empirical researchers ultimately need reliable inference on causal estimates; however, uniform confidence sets for the method remain unavailable. To fill this gap, we develop valid and sharp confidence…
无限阶面板自回归过程的工具变量估计
We consider instrumental variables (IV) estimation of a possibly infinite order dynamic panel autoregressive (AR) process with individual effects. The estimation is based on the sieve AR approximation, with its lag order increasing with sample size. Transforming the variable to eliminate individual effects generates an endogeneity problem, particularly when the time series is only moderately long. IV approaches are useful to obtain well-behaved estimators in panels with…
