Causal Inference with Multiple Misclassified Exposures: A Control Variate-Adjusted Calibration Weighting Approach
多个误分类暴露的因果推断:控制变量调整的校准加权方法
Exposure misclassification is a common issue prevalent in studies of respiratory infections in cystic fibrosis. Throat swabs are frequently used in place of expectorated or induced sputum cultures, although they have imperfect sensitivity and specificity to detect Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. We develop calibration weighting and control variate estimators for causal inference with multiple misclassified binary exposures and clustered observations. The…
