Efficient Treatment Effect Estimation with Out-of-bag Post-stratification
利用袋外后分层高效估计处理效应
Post-stratification is often used to estimate treatment effects with higher efficiency. However, the majority of existing post-stratification frameworks depend on prior knowledge of the distributions of covariates and assume that the units are classified into post-strata without error. We propose a novel method to determine a proper stratification rule by mapping the covariates into a post-stratification factor (PSF) using predictive regression models. Inspired by the…
