Analysis of Two-Stage Rollout Designs with Clustering for Causal Inference under Network Interference
网络干扰下带聚类的两阶段逐步投放实验设计分析
Estimating causal effects under interference is pertinent to many real-world settings. Recent work with low-order potential outcomes models uses a rollout design to obtain unbiased estimators that require no interference network information. However, the required extrapolation can lead to prohibitively high variance. To address this, we propose a two-stage experiment that selects a sub-population in the first stage and restricts treatment rollout to this sub-population in…
