后验漂移与潜在隐藏混杂下的试验证据迁移AI 解读

Randomized trials provide internally valid treatment-effect evidence, but trial participants may not represent the target population. In contrast, observational studies are often closer to the target population, but their treatment assignment may be affected by possible hidden confounding. We develop a robust posterior-drift framework for estimating the average treatment effect in an observational target population when exact conditional-effect transportability may fail. The…

利用随机试验评估观测数据的条件平均治疗效应估计AI 解读

Conditional average treatment effects (CATEs) are increasingly estimated from observational data and used to guide policy and individualized treatment decisions. Before such estimates can be trusted in practice, their predictive fitness needs to be assessed, yet observational data alone offer limited opportunities for doing so. We propose CATE Assessment via Fitness Evaluation (CAFE), a formal framework for directly assessing the goodness-of-fit of a CATE estimate learned…
