Double Machine Learning for Time Series
面向时间序列的双重机器学习
We modify the Double Machine Learning estimator to broaden its applicability to macroeconomic time-series settings. A deterministic cross-fitting step, termed Reverse Cross-Fitting, leverages the time-reversibility of stationary series to improve sample utilization and efficiency. We detail and prove the conditions under which the estimator is asymptotically valid. We then demonstrate, through simulations, that its performance remains valid in realistic finite samples and is…
