Generalized propensity score weighting for functional causal inference framework
函数型因果推断框架中的广义倾向得分加权
Estimating causal effects in observational studies requires adjustment for confounding, a task that becomes challenging when the exposure is a function observed over a continuous domain rather than a scalar variable. We develop a functional propensity score weighting framework that achieves covariate balance by removing dependence between time-varying treatments and observed confounders, thereby enabling estimation of marginal causal effects in settings with functional…
