Inference for treatment-specific survival curves using machine learning
利用机器学习推断处理特定生存曲线
In the absence of data from a randomized trial, researchers often aim to use observational data to draw causal inference about the effect of a treatment on a time-to-event outcome. In this context, interest often focuses on the treatment-specific survival curves; that is, the survival curves were the entire population under study to be assigned to receive the treatment or not. Under certain causal conditions, including that all confounders of the treatment-outcome…
