Estimation of Conditional Random Coefficient Models using Machine Learning Techniques
利用机器学习估计条件随机系数模型
Nonparametric random coefficient (RC)-density estimation has mostly been considered in the marginal density case under strict independence of RCs and covariates. This paper deals with the estimation of RC-densities conditional on a (large-dimensional) set of control variables using machine learning techniques. The conditional RC-density allows to disentangle observable from unobservable heterogeneity in partial effects of continuous treatments adding to a growing literature…
