协变量分布偏移下的自动去偏机器学习AI 解读

We present machine learning estimators for causal and predictive parameters under covariate shift, where covariate distributions differ between training and target populations. One such parameter is the average effect of a policy that alters the covariate distribution, such as a treatment modifying surrogate covariates used to predict long-term outcomes. Another example is the average treatment effect for a population with a shifted covariate distribution, like the effect of…

因果与结构效应的自动去偏机器学习AI 解读

Many causal and structural effects depend on regressions. Examples include policy effects, average derivatives, regression decompositions, average treatment effects, causal mediation, and parameters of economic structural models. The regressions may be high dimensional, making machine learning useful. Plugging machine learners into identifying equations can lead to poor inference due to bias from regularization and/or model selection. This paper gives automatic debiasing for…
