Quadruply robust estimation of marginal structural models in observational studies subject to covariate-driven observations
协变量驱动观测下边际结构模型的四重稳健估计
Electronic health records and other sources of observational data are increasingly used for drawing causal inferences. The estimation of a causal effect using these data not meant for research purposes is subject to confounding and irregular covariate-driven observation times affecting the inference. A doubly-weighted estimator accounting for these features has previously been proposed that relies on the correct specification of two nuisance models used for the weights. In…
